Paychex Environment Employee Reviews

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

I swear our service teams drink the Koolade and bleed blue. They bend over backwards for clients. I'm in sales and we couldn't do it without them. Also the recognition and compensation for top performers is amazing.

Review from Sales Dept

Everyone enjoys what they do

Fun and friendly culture at Paychex.

Review from Customer Support Dept

The culture is positive, feels like I am with family.

Review from Customer Support Dept

Company has a positive culture

Oblivious to its own failures

Get to work from home, and easy travel when im out in the feild meeting buisness

Review from Sales Dept

Everyone I've met lives the values of the company - integrity, partnership, accountability, and respect. There's more, but I think these are the most telling. We have history, but we are not held back by that.

Been here over a decade and it has truly been a blessed experience to be with a company that is generous and cares about their employees.

They love taking on new projects

honest communication and positive environment

I am able to put my family first, plain and simple.

Paychex is one of the top most admired companies to work for and one of the reasons is our work environment. Everyone is respectfully and has a willingness to provide a helping hand. The entire work for is highly professional and a pleasure to work and partner with. An excellent experience!

I have flexibility to control my calendar

If the company actually practiced what it preached, it would be an amazing place to work.

Fun activities, opportunities to win prizes, sometimes we get free lunch, monetary incentives for hard work - bonuses even for entry-level positions and payments for selling products to clients for anyone working in a client-facing position. Plus annual raises.

Positive attitude across different teams

Work from home, no more driving and drssing up everyday. Work life balance is enriched now

They try and maintain a happy work environment in a high stress job

I work from home, but meet up on team video chats and they are productive with some humor as well mixed in.

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Better salaries and fair treatment of employees

Review from Sales Dept

Treat employees with respect. Listen to their opinions. Create a nurturing and caring environment

Overhire and allow support to those who work directly with employees with the time and opportunity to learn what is necessary to support the client base.

Executive leadership needs to be removed and bring in more forward-thinking 2022-type leaders.

Management style. Employees straight out of college and experienced employees are grouped together.

Respect, appreciation, higher salaries, learn about the tech you are selling - direct mail campaigns are outdated, and acknowledgment.
