Overall Satisfaction with Paylocity

We come across "Amendments or back-dating taxes from another state" that take 30-60 days to complete, and penalties increase
while you are waiting for the tax team to complete the process. Or researching
a particular state regarding a tax issue takes 30 - 60 days.


If you have 20 to 30 days seem more on the practical side of
things. I get that we are not the only client, but changing a process to
increase morale and success is to review methods that can help mitigate issues
that may arise. The lean approach helps shape such a process to see where the
waste is and how to increase less time.
  • Client Relations
  • Customer Service
  • Migrate issues
  • Calm cool demeanor
  • 30 - 60 Day window on Tax researches
  • Workforce Visibility
  • Retention - Performance Mgt.
  • Community - Where employees can give kiddos
Payroll is a breeze since the majority of the backend items are completed for you.

Time & Labor is great; however, in HR & Payroll, you have an "Approvals" Tab for time off. Our staff like the feature but select time off there, meaning they are confused as to why it does not connect with Time & Labor as it should. I had to disable it, but still, having the function on the platform does not make any sense if not connecting with Time & Labor.
I have seen several employees use Peer Recognition/Impressions. I like the feature and seeing what reviews staff provide to each other. This is a great engagement tool for employees without expecting anything in return.

We have not used the function in Survey or Video yet. So can't provide you with an option on this.
