In Decline - Service Operations Lead Paylocity Employee Review

More recently hired leaders from competitors bring the same culture we left by coming to Paylocity in the first place. Their strategies so far have unfortunately been either ineffective or unclear after taking a very long time to develop at all. The level of transparency is seems to become more limited as it travels downward; and everything feels "spun" or scripted a lot of the time when it is shared. We miss that authentic connection we used to have. Newer Senior VP of Operations unfortunately hasn't made a noticeable impact in the positive direction, only taking us backwards. This has also hindered career advancement opportunities. Years of honing skills and building relationships within our previous culture seem wasted at times as external hires fill open leadership positions, blocking internal promotions that would have naturally occurred. Paylocity championed remote work for a long time, something our executive leaders proudly boasted about. Newer policy requiring in-office presence for previously remote promotions creates further limitations for internal candidates. This shift feels ironic given that some senior leaders implementing the change live far from an office themselves. This inconsistency has been observed on multiple occasions, where external applicants are hired remotely even after the change in policy was announced. The inconsistency and lack of transparency about all of the above constantly raises questions about the fairness and spirit behind these shifts, which is a topic they seem content avoiding at this time. This may be what other companies do regularly but Paylocity only recently began demonstrating these practices, and it is an awful shift to experience after knowing something different for so long.
