Pros
A once great company. At one point in time the pros were: 1. Remote/hybrid 2. Competitive pay/benefits 3. Amazing leadership (non micromanagement) 4. Career growth 5. Trust in work relationships 6. Professional …none of this today.
Cons
A exceptional business can last for two or three or even a dozen generations. But they all don’t, so what happened to Paychex? All the great leaders left this organization together. Who did Paychex replace them with? Some of the worst and incompetent micromanagers that I’ve ever seen in my career. Many of them outside the organization. They hired boomers and micromanagers outside the organization with legacies of gutting and hollowing out their previous companies by offshoring and total disregard for the workforce that dedicated decades to building this company’s reputation to almost a 4.0 place to work. Today it’s an abysmal 3.2 and going lower every year. After Martin Mucci left this place struggled. For new comers just sure it’s worth it financially before you commit to working here.
