Ayushmaan K.

Payroll Specialist

Pros

“As a technical recruiter, I rely heavily on Boolean search, filters, projects, saved searches, and InMail to find and contact qualified passive candidates.”

Cons

“One aspect of Paycom that I found disadvantageous is its punitive fee structure, which imposes penalties on employers for minor errors, such as retroactive data adjustments or processing mistakes.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Marquita V.

SALES MANAGER

“It does not recognize 2 different pay classes at the same time for an employee, If an employee works a 12 hour shift and 24 hour shift it does not calculate correctly.”
MS

Micaela S.

Human Resiurces

“It has not been the best at this time - system is very limited regarding certain processes in Paycom (i.e. correcting pay rates when retros are completed via PAF)”
CW

Cedric W.

Payroll Manager

Cons

“This lack of comparable alternatives makes it difficult to judge whether LinkedIn Recruiter is genuinely the best product or simply the only realistic option for many recruiters.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Flavia C.

Senior Recruiter

“The subscription fees are expensive, especially for small companies or individual recruiters, this made hard for right person to reach the suitable company.”
AC

Angel C.

QC

“This can make the lower tiers feel unnecessarily limited despite their cost.”
