Pros

Flexible schedule Work from home

Cons

Poor management, no coppery from upper management. Since Paychex has taken over, morale has plummeted. Jobs are being combined with no adjustment to pay. Extreme lack of communication from either company. Paychex bought Paycor because we were a powerhouse, then came and changed everything, laid off a huge number of employees, and now wants to freeze our pay, take away some of our holidays and lessen our PTO. Raul is no longer the CEO. He jumped ship before the ink was dry on the deal. It’s John Gibson from Paychex now. His focus is on how much money we can get from clients and how we can start billing them for more. In addition to adding double the responsibility on to each position and not increase their pay. The starting pay for the job postings out now are ridiculously less than what the starting pay was prior to the acquisition. Clients left after the announcement of the merger. Or they were in the process and left because of they’re getting nickel and dimed for everything.
