      I have been working at Paychex full-time for less than a year

      Pros

      Solid Product Offering Overall value is easy to sell Freedom to be successful Takes work to establish channels of business but these can be repeatable opportunities

      Cons

      I started in March 2019 and the companies new fiscal years starts in June 2019 not only did the company changes the compensation plan but they also are now offering commission guarantees for new sales people for the first 5 months. Since I started in March 2019 not only is my quota's 30% higher than someone that started in May 2019 going forward but I have no compensation guarantees. To say the least its been a... struggle because this role requires a strong pipeline to make money and with not guarantees and a higher quota than a new hire the commission structure does not work in my favor. The company did not think through the consequences of that decision as its been a distraction to say the least.

      New compensation plan didnt seem like it was well thought out.

      I have been working at Paychex full-time for less than a year

      Pros

      - lots of hands-on training and variety of training types - want to keep you at the company - promotions, trying different roles, lots of room for movement laterally and upwards - everyone is super helpful and kind - they truly live the values they preach - "talk the talk AND walk the walk"

      Cons

      - typical business attire in an office that doesn't have much/if any interactions face-to-face with clients. a more relaxed dress code could make employees more comfortable
