Pros

I have zero pros since John Gibson has taken over. He is running the company into the ground and has ZERO appreciation for any of the employees within Paychex.

Cons

Everything is being outsourced to India, and if you asked me that should be illegal to take away jobs from the country in which your company is in. Not to mention there has been a huge loss in how the company celebrates milestones and anniversaries. The company used to thrive on employee acknowledgment, and today you get nothing. Must be nice executives keep thriving and moving up while those doing the hard work are being laid off with very little severance. It’s just sad what Paychex has become.

Pros

Paychex is a great company to work for. I’ve held multiple roles over 20+ years. There are always ups and downs, but for every position, manager, decision I disagree with, there are ten others that are outstanding.

Cons

It’s a large company with many opportunities to grow, but smaller companies may offer higher compensation.

Pros

People and the overall environment is a positive one. If you do your part, definite long term career potential. It’s not easy- but stable, growing. Worth serious consideration for early career looking for sales experience with a great training program. Also good for mid-career consideration if base salary isn’t the primary reason you are in sales.

Cons

Very fast pace that doesn’t suit everyone. If you are looking for easy or just a job to “hang out”, this probably isn’t the right spot for you.
