GBThis company is TERRIBLE This company is TERRIBLE! Our Service Rep Candice Lee is rude and does not respond to emails. We have detailed deductions that change regularly and specific instructions on each pay period and they still mess it up. Getting anyone on the phone is impossible! We are abound to jump ship and switch. Meeting with a new provider next week.

GBThe worst payroll company ever The worst payroll company ever. They made my life harder instead of easier and overcharged me every chance they got. I had to keep calling and telling them that not the rate I was quoted. Then they blow up your email with all their side hustles. It’s a constant headache. Worst business decision anyone could make. Apparently I’m not the only dissatisfied client.

GBNot great but not horrible Began using this week about 3 weeks ago. The company I recently get hired for uses Paychex as their 3rd party one-stop-shop. Time cards / payrolls / sick / vacation hours / tax tops / and even External tools like FinFit. As my experience has neither been horrible or great I’m neutral at this point because this app was only pushed upon me by my employers to get all Employees on one platform. Hopefully this app gets some kind of universal integration with a majority of the banks. Such as Zelle to better see where it can serve a purpose in banking / finance

GBKeep shopping / Its not worth the brain damage We hired Paychex to take over / streamline our small business payroll/HR, etc...and its been a comedy of errors for the past 2 years. Its a series of talking to 4 different people who cant fix or cant understand the variety of technical support issues and if they dont have an answer....they just leave you on hold for 15 min and eventually hang up. The service / platform just isnt very good ....some people try but they dont have the capabilities to correct anything quickly. The other issue employees complain about is the UNGODLY amount of verification codes they have to get thru before they can access their portal/employee dashboard. We understand security but Paychex isnt cutting edge or efficient tech--- their service/platform is EXACTLY what companies fear when they make a big tech change. IT'S STILL PAINFUL.

GBAs a former employee As a former employee, and someone who worked for a company that used Paychex at one time, I can explain why the service is so bad. I was a computer operator, which means I ran payroll and all related paperwork, ran the printers, folding machines, stuffed envelopes, printed quarterly tax documents which took all weekend, and ran special reports. It was a very fast paced environment. Operators also had to help the ladies who manually stuffed envelopes. Our equipment was very old and very overworked. We had breakdowns almost daily, which would back up printing and cause more delays. Upper management refused to give us new equipment. Starting pay was $11/hr during the financial crisis. Even my manager said the company doesn't pay close to what it should. I quit after 6 months. I've seen my exact same job again 7 and 10 years later. It went from $11 to $14 to $17. That's an insult. Underpaid, management flat out didn't care, old worn out equipment they refused to upgrade, all because corporate wanted more profit. How else is the CEO going to get his huge bonus and pay off his third house? My manager admitted he had a high turnover for all these reasons. Our internet time was heavily monitored. I understand we are not there to play around, but we are human and need a break sometimes. Instead we were expected to research the company, products, history, milestones, and where they are going. I made $11/hr, I don't care, I'm here to get paid. So these are some of the reasons you get bad service. Look at what they pay and how employees are treated. Would you put in full effort for low pay? Even to this day, the company pays below market rates. I'm very happy I don't work here anymore. Low pay, management only cares about money, not employees or customers.
