The culture is terrible and the leaders do not care about people. They only care about the product and making money. - Human Resources Business Partner HRBP Paylocity Employee Review

Pros

People are great! But most are leaving or looking to leave so don’t get too attached to anyone.

Cons

So many! The culture is not inclusive (despite a fancy little dashboard that may lead you to believe otherwise) or supportive of mental health and work life balance. HR leaders work 24/7 and expect you to do the same to advance THEIR careers. Executives mislead everyone that no one got a raise or bonus during Covid - people most certainly did - just not you! (But our CEO was holding an animal so he must be telling the truth!) don’t believe a word of it. So many of us have given feedback about burnout and the need for better support for employees and it falls on deaf ears. The enormous amount of turnover in HR is proof that good people will leave a bad culture. Don’t be fooled - the culture is really BAD.

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

Great benefits; 90% of the ppl that worked there were the best and really did great work.

Cons

Made employees choose between having MLK Day off or Juneteenth- both which are federally recognized holidays. Excuse was that our customers are open on those days so we need to be open. So as a company, we had to pick which would be a paid holiday and everyone chose Juneteenth because it was in the summer. I think we got a floating holiday to use for any other holiday we wanted off that wasn’t recognized by the company. As you can imagine, this racism was prevalent in management/leadership. My team was the most diverse team and we all got restructured/laid off. There’s a lot of ego and control issues in this company, especially in Talent Acquisition.
