Pros

The Good: The company values their clients and works on a monthly basis to release developments based on their needs and the markets to be an industry leader. I can't tell you how proud I felt to be a part of an organization that was constantly working to improve. The training is absolutely incredible. It's non-stop and not just on the product. Paycom invests in technology and they invest in their people in a big way. Growth Opportunity. I was constantly seeing people being promoted into management and actualizing their dreams at Paycom. With the companies growth there is plenty of room to move up! Money. One of the best commission structures I've seen for sales reps in the industry. The earning potential here is incredible. My colleagues. Paycom hires the best and the brightest and my peers are some of the most fun and inspiring people I've ever met. You will make friends for life here.

Cons

If you're a true sales hunter type the work/life balance can be challenging your first year but if you build your pipeline and stick it out it will pay off year two. There will also be a bit of a learning curve so the new people that I've seen be really successful are the ones who can hit the ground running and "fake it till they make it."

Pros

* Fast learning and professional skill growth. * Great people and strong teams. * Recognized name in the OKC community. * Valuable experience that strengthens future career opportunities, especially in Tech.

Cons

Over the past couple of years, career growth has felt extremely limited. Promotions and meaningful raises have become increasingly rare, and many employees believe these decisions are being driven from the very top. Layoffs and terminations have also become common, creating a constant sense of uncertainty. High performers often take on high-visibility projects with aggressive timelines and limited support. The expectations are unrealistic, and even successful delivery doesn’t usually lead to recognition or advancement. Leadership tends to make decisions very late, creating unnecessary urgency and forcing teams into last-minute scrambles. Benefits have declined, opportunities for advancement have become scarce, and overall morale has suffered significantly. There are talented people here and it can be a good place to gain experience, but I would view it primarily as a stepping stone rather than a long-term destination.
