Pros

This WAS a great company before they merged with OASIS!

Cons

They (oasis supervisors) treat payroll specialists who were not from oasis like scum!! They do not care about the paychex employees who had to merge into there teams. They WILL break you down mentally, pile every departments work on you and not care one bit! Everything was always the payroll specialists fault, we would always get the grunt of everything. The oasis payroll people made sure paychex employees were divided and the communication was awful! The paychex employees who merged into oasis teams always found out new updates LAST or never found out at all until we would get lucky one person finds out and passes it on. They set us up for failure every time! Clients and employees were leaving left & right! When I put in my twice weeks, my Oasis supervisor harassed me every single day with loads of work until my last day! I wouldn’t refer this company to anyone!

Pros

Nothing is good about working here.

Cons

Nobody is ever held accountable. Pay is awful. Benefits were all moved out of state, so all providers in the area are all out of network. Jobs are being moved to India. The list goes on. Sales is the absolute favorite department in the entire company. Nothing sales can do is ever wrong, even when they give false information to clients and then the support team has to deal with the fallback. Don't get me started on Payroll.... the entire department has gone to the wind. I honestly don't know how this company ever did good with payroll services. The #1 complaint i got from every single client I interacted with was they could never get ahold of their Payroll Specialist. The company's response to this was to start making other departments learn payroll duties. This year they moved insurance benefits to a plan out of Arkansas, which made every provider I was already seeing become out of network. I had my first major medical scare of my adulthood and ended up paying a few grand out of pocket because U of R was out of network. Promotions are non existent. They make you apply and interview for any role you want to move into. There is nothing good about working here, and i would advise anyone to stay away from them.
