Pros

$1 healthcare is cool. So are the $4 lunches. You make some fun friends there too.

Cons

Where do I start? Well.... the management and supervisors have a really fun way of motivating you....if you aren't doing well....they will threaten to fire you. You can't keep up with your work because of how high the turnover rate is so sure you have a work/life balance....work/life as in you live at work with the amount of overtime. Rarely do you get a "hey, you're doing a good job! keep it up!" so if you're someone who needs motivation to get your work done...look elsewhere. The reason there are so many positive reviews, is because they make you write a positive review when you start working here (they will say on here that they don't, but they do). They cover all the flaws up with gifts and big events to keep employees "satisfied". Only a couple departments get adequate training, the rest of the departments are a "sink or swim" kind of department.

We invite our employees to tell others about working at Paycom in many formats, one of which is sending invitations directly from Glassdoor. It has been communicated to managers and supervisors that the Glassdoor invitations are both voluntary and anonymous. If you were asked to leave a positive review, we hope you addressed this with human resources in your exit interview. Second, we are proud that we do have so many employees that are both happy and thriving at Paycom. We are continuously evaluating and improving our training programs and will be sure to communicate your feedback to the management team.

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.
