Pros

Remote position so no commuting required Awesome supportive coworkers within the teams Stable income Nice offices if you have to go in

Cons

Massive changes made by senior management in a vacuum Preferential treatment is given to those who reinforce upper management’s beliefs, all others are left to clean up the mess Former ideals like client experience and team player are used by the chosen few to brow beat others into making up for the failures of others Since going public this company has become all smoke and mirrors with little substance.

Pros

Work remote. Fantastic leaders, Definitely a place I have enjoyed working.

Cons

Pay is slightly less than competitors but work life balance and culture make up for it.

Pros

There used to be many. By the time I left all of the pros had been phased out. The only pro was allowing some people to stay remote- but if you wanted to advance in your career you would be forced back in office.

Cons

Low pay. Micromanaging. Hiring leadership from outside Paylocity and even outside of the industry. Major and extreme departmental changes rapidly. Change is a part of business but in six months my role became unrecognizable. I was there for five years and had planned to be there for much longer. This last year was terrible. Low communication from all leadership. Higher and higher expectations of employees with no bonuses or pay raises to accommodate. My regional director was forcing people out and speaking badly about employees regularly.
