Pros

During my 4 years at Paychex I received "World Class" Training. When I reminisce on my time there I reflect on how competent and confident my teams felt and the emphasis on the two terms were used interchangeably in the culture. People felt empowered and results were strong.

Cons

Upward mobility could be slow at times and heavily based on referral activity.
