Pros
Paycor has a supportive product team, and they are growing into a respectable agile company. Leadership is approachable for the most part, and as a fairly diverse company, it is easy to find pockets of coworkers with whom to hang out with outside of work, regardless of your interests. They also encourage community involvement and make it easy to find out what's happening in Cincinnati.
Cons
Two categories of cons: 1) Known and 2) Unknown. Known cons, I think, are ones the business acknowledges: frequent growing pains at Paycor show that there are a lot of fast changes and some poor communication between management levels; the company has also grown quickly already so there's a lot of tribal knowledge that needs to be acquired from various people, making the onboarding process a long [and exhausting] one. I also received upward of 100 emails per day, which all employees regarded as a nuisance, despite the expectation that said emails would be replied to and read even on evenings and weekends. The most successful employees at Paycor seem to be those with a very blurry work/life balance, which is not necessarily communicated during the interviews and overview of "Paycor culture." Grain of salt: This very likely also depends on the department and managers involved. Now, Unknown Cons: The fine print. And by fine, I mean, invisible. I signed a relocation agreement stating that if I left the company within 18 months of employment, I would owe any relocation expenses back. No problem. However, when I did leave [within 18 months] for a truly once-in-a-lifetime offer, I paid back the relocaiton expenses -- plus tax. This was not in any contract or agreement that I signed, and Paycor reserved the right to debit my bank account directly. My relocation totaled ~$4800, but they took $8,000. Nobody, not even the Paycor HR team or their accountants, could provide me with a clear line-item invoice. They gave me one invoice which was handwritten (no line items) and then sent me an excel spreadsheet of my final paycheck amount. The accountant only gave me pay stubs, which I already had access to. It's been nearly one month since I left and I still have not received clarity as to why or how I ended up paying so much back to Paycor -- presumably, they had already paid taxes on the money. The entire 'off-boarding' experience with them has been completely negative and has cost me an enormous amount of money and time to sort through. I'm still not even sure if what they did was legal.
