Pros

Benefits mainly paid for, free coffee, nice office building, big desk, a lot of workers from Rochester so you should know some friends there. Management wants you to be successful if they like you. Some good and friendly people.

Cons

Customers are growing unhappy with their Payroll at Paychex making H+B calling on existing clients a much harder sell. Work groups and teams can be in cliques so make sure you either kiss butt or get along with your team, salary is low for industry, Nobody there really likes calling clients on phones every day so there can be negative cube farm repetitive vibe, Commission is also pretty low. Most people here know they can do better and Paychex is stepping stone. Would not recommend for anyone beyond 2 years post college. Definitely not any position here besides Manager worth being too excited about. Plenty of gossip and complaints between workers.

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.
