Pros

Base pay plus uncapped commission

Cons

If you don’t act like Paycom is your whole life, they will be skeptical of your commitment. Extreme micromanagement and tons of reporting and rolling up numbers. Top-down initiatives that don’t make sense. Sent everyone to corporate for training with a week’s warning right before Christmas. Meetings don’t count if they’re not in-person. Leadership (manager, regional) are glorified report writers. In office Mondays and Fridays and in-person meetings Tuesday-Thursday. The expectation of the job is that you are booked out, but you still have to report on meetings you booked during certain hours on Monday and Friday. Major stress culture and the expectation to close quota every week even if you closed something big the week before. Big quotas without new products to sell.

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.
