Outside Sales Consultant Candidates Beware - Anonymous employee Paychex Employee Review

Please think about the fact that Paychex pays their sales consultants 10K-25K less of a base salary than their competitors. It goes without saying how much they value their employees and is evident in the turnover. They brag about a nice commission plan, but the only way to be successful is to be that dirty salesperson I'm sure nobody wants to be. Ask any successful salesperson at Paychex about their success and how they achieved it , and I promise you in less than a minute you will realize they are more often then not, ego-maniacs who brag about their accomplishments rather than try to see beyond themselves and how their knowledge can help others. This is probably because they are trying so hard to fend for themselves because the base salary is so low for the amount of work and stress it takes to penetrate a market where payroll is highly commoditized. The company culture from a sales standpoint stinks , and there are multiple daily conflicts between seven enter divisions and I have witnessed many of my colleagues experience bullying , harassment, and lack of quick response by management to resolve the issue . Do your homework on other companies , there are some great ones out there to work for like Paylocity, Trinet, Ultimat Software, iSolved, Namely, and even some local providers that many of the best Paychex sales reps have left to. They all offer better compensation and overall value if you're looking for a stable career without as much stress. Don't waste your time with Paychex low ball offers if you want a successful career in sales, you are better than that! Btw, in all my time at Paychex , I have only come across 3 current clients willing to give a reference and Paychex has more than 600K clients in North America. They are getting blown away by newer companies with better strategies and resources, also a more ethical company culture overall.
