Pros

Remote culture, great team members.

Cons

New leadership is clueless about existing products, and really don't care to learn. No understanding of what our applications do or what it will take to modernize/replace them, yet these same people represent our product teams in executive meetings. Simplistic thinking abounds, unrealistic road maps are being developed and teams will pay the price when they are unable to deliver. The "legacy" Paylocity culture is all but gone.

Work remote. Fantastic leaders, Definitely a place I have enjoyed working.

Cons

Pay is slightly less than competitors but work life balance and culture make up for it.

Pros

Great benefits; 90% of the ppl that worked there were the best and really did great work.

Cons

Made employees choose between having MLK Day off or Juneteenth- both which are federally recognized holidays. Excuse was that our customers are open on those days so we need to be open. So as a company, we had to pick which would be a paid holiday and everyone chose Juneteenth because it was in the summer. I think we got a floating holiday to use for any other holiday we wanted off that wasn’t recognized by the company. As you can imagine, this racism was prevalent in management/leadership. My team was the most diverse team and we all got restructured/laid off. There’s a lot of ego and control issues in this company, especially in Talent Acquisition.
