Pros

Stable company with free cash flow. Overall company culture seems well intended but the individual regions are all operated independently.

Cons

The independence of "zones" leaves some areas with a great experience and others with a Pain filled existance. You are at the mercy of this persons whims. Good or bad. District managers are puppets to this group. Micro management is an understatement.

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.
