Why Paylocity Is a Next Gen Workplace

Paylocity strives to create an organizational culture where every employee has a voice, feels truly welcome, appreciated, and free to be themselves, and is empowered and enabled to do their best work. A strong commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion is critical to creating such a culture. Transparency is an important part of Paylocity’s DE&I journey. This extends to transparency around wages, as the company is committed to openly sharing position salary ranges and total compensation philosophies with their employees. Paylocity works to empower the workforce of today and tomorrow in creating a better world for everyone. Therefore, they focus on efforts with nonprofits that promote workforce development and education/literacy for persons with disabilities and disadvantaged individuals. Additionally, Paylocity cares deeply about the environment we're leaving for future generations by thoughtfully considering all decisions and using sustainable practices to reduce environmental footprint, and encourage and enable their employees to do the same. Paylocity recognizes the importance of our employees’ need to balance work and family life. To accomplish this and to provide flexibility, the Company provides paid vacation, floating holiday, and sick time.
