Pros

-Flexibility on your daily schedule.

Cons

- Lots of repetitive training even for ten years reps. - Change your territory at least 1 time per year. - No consistency in territory which affects relationships with your referring partners. - High employee turnover. - Biggest competitor is our internal partners. - consistently trying not to get screwed out of a deals by other in-house sales reps. - During the pandemic they took away our 401k match but still pushed us to sell it because they say it's important.....

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.
