Pros

They provide a paycheck, $1 health insurance, and $4 lunches.

Cons

They don't follow their company values from the top down, decision making occurs at the highest feasible level, they highly discourage taking time off, they don't trust you to do the job they hire you to do, people cry at their desks and in the stairwells, they mostly promote from within to ensure group think is maintained, they're toxic about flex work options, there's cubicle walls everywhere, every IC is extremely micromanaged, everyone including management is afraid that any bold action will get someone or their team fired, they have no real definition or acceptance of project management, they don't give their employees laptops, departments are extremely siloed and combative. and they believe their "way of doing things" is superior to any industry definition or practice or experience. Stay as far away from this company as you can if you value your mental health, your career, and/or your expertise as a professional. And may God have mercy with anyone stuck there because they think there's no other option for them to pay their bills or have a career.

Pros

The culture is one of the strongest aspects of the company! You’re surrounded by highly driven, intelligent, and motivated individuals who push you to elevate your own performance, all while centering the clients best interests in mind. There is a clear focus on growth—not just professionally, but personally as well. What stands out most is the ability to make a tangible impact. The work we do directly influences our clients’ success, and there are constant opportunities to improve processes, drive efficiency, and deliver meaningful results. If you are someone who wants to contribute ideas, lead initiatives, and see the outcome of your efforts, this is the place to do it! Leadership invests in development, and there are continuous opportunities to learn, mentor others, and refine your skill set. The benefits, compensation, and overall structure support high performance, and the company does a great job recognizing those who deliver results. I highly recommend Paycom as a place of employment.

Cons

The environment is fast-paced and demanding, which can require long hours at times and sometimes frequent travel. However, those hours are purposeful—they directly correlate to the impact you’re making for clients and the success you help drive. For individuals who are motivated by results and thrive in high-performance environments, this becomes more of an opportunity than a drawback.

Pros

Paycom offers very competitive starting pay for the Oklahoma City area. The medical benefit is only $1 for employee only coverage. They also offer something called the Zero Card for medical coverage as well for no cost. Highly recommend using the Zero Card if able to be used. The card can save a significant amount of money. Many of the immediate supervisors and peers you work with are professional. Overall the people are a pleasure to work with.

Cons

There are a lot of changes going on currently. As someone who prefers stability the last two years have been extremely challenging. The workload seems quite excessive as multiple departments have been consolidated. In the last two years I had leaders change about every three months for various reasons. Automation within the company has eliminated many positions this past year. Changes have been made to the medical plans so that several medications are no longer covered. This is extremely unfortunate especially because no one was notified until after open enrollment was completed. One medication for diabetes treatment and weight loss was cut, the company response essentially was "we have a gym, please use it. "
