- A 50K base is not unusual. If you think this is amazing, you just don't know any better.
- Commission structure is incredibly weak. 10% of 1st year revenue is pretty darn pathetic when you consider how much recurring income Paycom receives. My biggest deal was about 130K and for that I received a little over 10K in income after taxes.
- They make you write a Glassdoor reviews when you are new (hence all the awesome reviews)
- Phone canvassing = calling the same people from the same list of companies in your territory twice a week for 8 hours trying to set up appointments.
- Generally speaking HR Managers and payroll admins just want to avoid doing the extra work of a payroll implementation. They really don't want to meet with you.
- Payroll implementations are done by minimally supported untrained sales reps with very little experience.
- Attrition rate has to be close to 90%.
- They will actually tell you that work life balance is for losers who don't want to succeed.
- Aggressive recruiting tactics, they've got to keep up with attrition.
- Middle management is a joke.
