The self-service employee app and customizable dashboards are functional features that appeal to medium-sized businesses and nonprofits.

What do you like best about Paycor? Paycor performance is ok, but needs work. The integrations are ok with Indeed but needs more work, onboarding is good support. What do you dislike about Paycor? I dont like the customer support, the support team is horrible, there is zer support for pretty much everything. They have an integration with Indeed, which is poor at the best. This needs to be better and allow for better candidates or the back end indeed option to help drive more candidates ...

What do you like best about Paycor? Consolidation of tools - ATS, payroll, benefits, timekeeping, performance reviews, and such What do you dislike about Paycor? Some features don't allow for adjusting to fit how I need to use it, for example, the new performance reviews, the status list is great, but no dates are shown unless you dig into each individual review. Or for accruals, the system allows for people to go into a negative balance, which is a constant reminder to employees to pay ...

What do you like best about Paycor? It’s simple to request time off, pull pay stubs and tax details, and complete 1:1 and performance management reviews. What do you dislike about Paycor? My biggest frustration is that, even though PayCor integrates with Google Calendar to send 1:1 calendar invites, those invites can’t include direct links to Teams/Meet/Zoom, etc. On top of that, you also can’t move the meeting times in Google Calendar; instead, you have to manually log in to PayCor and ...

What do you like best about Paycor? I find Paycor to be a great resource for payroll and recruiting. I love using Paycor Recruit because it allows us to run background checks for future employees and helps weed out those who are not a good fit for our company. The ability to reduce turnover rates and keep track of everything for employees and HR is really helpful. I love the Knowledge Center, and overall, my experience with Paycor and its resources has been great. The initial setup was very ...
