      Pros

      Name recognition, very stable company, great support with marketing materials, excellent training.

      Cons

      Support from management, the pay- even at plan- is less than average for an outside sales rep, lack of leadership, sales is very isolated from the rest of the company and this is detrimental in a service organization. Very little room for advancement, despite claims made. Operations and sales tend not to work together well and it's difficult at times to follow the process through without cooperation between the two departments. Difficult to find a time to take any time off.

      Pros

      Paychex is a great company. Their business model is very solid, and their senior management team is great. The benefit package is great, even if the pay may be on the lower side compared to industry average.

      Cons

      The company is so large that there is a lack of communication between different departments. The culture is strong, so it is difficult to introduce change. Tenure is often seen as superior to achievements when looking to move up in the company.

      Pros

      Good company overall...People are intelligent and very helpful to one another. Training is amazing and there are high expectations. Benefits are great. Not a lot of turn over...many veterans.

      Cons

      Upper management gets placed in position because of sales numbers and not because of leadership skills...Has been an issue within, but not willing to change it. Pay is average for what you do.
