Pros

Since my first day working at CBIZ I have not found any Pros that I can list.

Cons

Where do I begin... Their technology isn't their own that they are attempting to sell as a service for Payroll, Time Keeping and Employee management and the solution providers they have gone with are outdated and lack basic functions that most providers offer. Management staff is by far the most dysfunctional group of people I have ever seen. The benefits team doesn't play well with the payroll team and neither team play well with the accountant's team. I feel like our internal teams are our biggest competitor, instead of working together they all work against eachother. Our Marketing team is pretty much nonexistent. Sales Producers have to create their own marketing campaigns that eats into their monthly budget to be able to meet with potential clients. Speaking of sales budget, it is the lowest I've ever had in field sales. To get an expense report approved is next to impossible. For a company issued cell phone, while on the road my charger stopped working, I purchased a new charger with my company card and when I submitted my expense report found out that it was considered a personal expense that I then needed to reimburse the company for. Their pay scale is not to industry standard, I was promised a sales guarantee when I accepted the job and found out in training that they where not going to give out the guarantee anymore.

Pros

The benefits are great! Just a detail that I think speaks volumes is that they have bereavement leave for pets (as long as its reasonable) The atmosphere- Definitely a workplace that supports its associates and helps us grow rather than giving write-ups. Lots to learn- I feel like I have been given such a fantastic opportunity to learn and grow here. I genuinely feel like if I would've brainstormed the perfect job this would be it.

Cons

The pay could be better, but its not terrible considering the benefits and my position is wfh.

Pros

Good opportunity to learn and grow your career if you make the extra effort. Decent amount of time off in the off season. Offices are clean and provide often provides food and has events to get the office together.

Cons

Pay is not the best. Will drag along promotions if they think they can get away with it. HR has been feeling increasingly hostile since the Marcum takeover. Recent layoffs have increased workloads for employees that stayed. The busy season can be brutal and upper management hawks billable hours ignoring the flow and cycles of some client books causing some employees to become overloaded with work. Outsourcing programs have been a nightmare causing increased budget costs for client books.
