Pros

Potential remote work if no branch in your area.

Cons

Health coverage changed and is more expsensive, You can earn a great amount of PTO BUT are never allowed to take it. Poor increases that don't reflect positive reviews. Forced into position that they deem "lateral" when they are demotions. Lying about job duties, then changing them every month. Micromanagement by AI and leadership is out of control. EE's are not allowed to speak amongst themselves. Leadership is pushing India partners on all aspects and its ruined the quality and customer satisfaction. Clients are aware and are leaving in mass. I don't know what, why or even who thought this was a good direction to go! Since Gibson is in charge the issues fall on him. The future for Paychex is very cloudy and quite honestly if they continue this path the company may be bought out or go under due to the amount of client turn over. No accountability even though its one of their "core values". Sr leadership leaving in mass as well.

Pros

Paychex is a great company to work for. I’ve held multiple roles over 20+ years. There are always ups and downs, but for every position, manager, decision I disagree with, there are ten others that are outstanding.

Cons

It’s a large company with many opportunities to grow, but smaller companies may offer higher compensation.

Pros

People and the overall environment is a positive one. If you do your part, definite long term career potential. It’s not easy- but stable, growing. Worth serious consideration for early career looking for sales experience with a great training program. Also good for mid-career consideration if base salary isn’t the primary reason you are in sales.

Cons

Very fast pace that doesn’t suit everyone. If you are looking for easy or just a job to “hang out”, this probably isn’t the right spot for you.
