Pros

After spending almost a decade in the military and a decade in the service industry, my first experience in the corporate world gave me the mindset shared by most Americans that my job was just a necessary evil, an ends to a means. My former employers seemed to do their best to wrench every ounce of work out of me with little regard for my professional development and well-being short of how it affected their bottom line. With Paycom I can honestly say they have shown me what a great employer can do to empower its workforce and inspire its workers to not only succeed but to be committed to their work as they are rewarded as Paycom continues to rise. I can’t imagine working anywhere else. Thank you Paycom.

Cons

Look, success isn’t easy. If you want to the easy way look elsewhere, if you are coming to Paycom expect to work hard. “Nothing in the world is worth having or worth doing unless it means effort, pain, difficulty… I have never in my life envied a human being who led an easy life. I have envied a great many people who led difficult lives and led them well.” ― Theodore Roosevelt

Pros

You can make a lot of money if you are in the right territory and have a good client base that hasn’t been oversold by previous AMs. The training is very good and you will make good friends! The people they hire are smart and fun to be around

Cons

If there has been high turnover in your territory it will be hard to sell as the clients have products that have not been properly implemented and are likely gun shy to purchase. It will also depend how “over promised/under delivered” their experience with new business is. The work/life balance can, and probably will, become very toxic. You are on the road constantly if you have a travel heavy territory which makes it difficult to get admin work done during business hours. You will be working before and/or after work - probably on the weekends as well. Ask for transparency in your territory assignment. You want to know how far your furthest client is as you will have to go see them in person at some point

This is a performance-driven role with high expectations, and team members are given clear direction and the tools to succeed. Those who consistently deliver see meaningful rewards for the work they put in. Please share further feedback with your leader.
