Pros

I was really excited about the $1 a paycheck insurance until I realized they didn't cover my husband or children at all. That would be entirely out of pocket. The friendly people were good but really most jobs have that. The gym wasn't bad, if small, but they were making it bigger when I left.

Cons

You may notice I didn't talk about the actual job. Mainly because it wasn't very good. Not much training, I heard some departments didn't even GET training specific to their job, and leadership is sporadic. A lot of the team leads are fresh out of college and had only been at the company for a year or so before getting bumped up. Some handled it well. Most just muddled along. I'd have a one-on-one with my lead and I was running it most of the time as they didn't know how to give feedback or insight. I don't recommend the place even as a resume filler straight out of school.

Pros

The People Make Paycom - I really enjoy working with everyone I have had the change to work with. As someone that moved to Oklahoma from out of state, my co-workers were welcoming, and I have several current and previous co-workers that I am friends with outside the office. In addition, the clients that I work with LOVE Paycom. It is easy to come to work when you are working with clients that genuinely want your help and enjoy working with you.

Cons

There aren't many opportunities to work remotely or from home in a hybrid manner, at least not in my department. My department is also relatively new, so there are a lot of changes fairly often. I'd like to have more consistency there, but I know that will come as our department grows.

Pros

* Fast learning and professional skill growth. * Great people and strong teams. * Recognized name in the OKC community. * Valuable experience that strengthens future career opportunities, especially in Tech.

Cons

Over the past couple of years, career growth has felt extremely limited. Promotions and meaningful raises have become increasingly rare, and many employees believe these decisions are being driven from the very top. Layoffs and terminations have also become common, creating a constant sense of uncertainty. High performers often take on high-visibility projects with aggressive timelines and limited support. The expectations are unrealistic, and even successful delivery doesn’t usually lead to recognition or advancement. Leadership tends to make decisions very late, creating unnecessary urgency and forcing teams into last-minute scrambles. Benefits have declined, opportunities for advancement have become scarce, and overall morale has suffered significantly. There are talented people here and it can be a good place to gain experience, but I would view it primarily as a stepping stone rather than a long-term destination.
