Paychex reviews

Development leads were at best junior developers themselves. A quick peek at LinkedIn will prove that most decision makers at Paychex, lack the necessary experience to be in leadership positions. Poor consultants who were supposed to help kick start or move projects along become more of a hindrance as they too were allowed to learn on the job as opposed to being experienced professionals and when really experienced consultants were brought in, they were tasked with work that was not associated with what they were supposed to be consulting us on. We were forced to use a couple development frameworks that was like having two angry kittens eating your hands while writing the most basic code. Since Tom Golisano referred to the internet as a fad, Paychex development has had to play catch up for a decade, and they chose the wrong people to lead that charge, in ten years when the people who want to do it themselves take over the customer market share, Paychex will not be capable of supporting them, and the client base will dwindle.

not many opportunties for advancement pay is low compared to other similar positions/companies technology is waaaaay "behind the times" need to update and/or change client survey process, which affects salaries - isn't a good indicator of client-satisfaction.
