Payroll Specialist Reviews
What is it like working as a Payroll Specialist?
February 2015
For Love or Money?
Payroll Specialist:
Pros: I enjoy successfully processing an accurate pay period because I care about every one of our employees and want them to not worry about compensation for their hard work.
Cons: Offering 100% of myself on a daily basis, and feeling like I am compensated for 75%. I least like that I cannot participate in PFP or some type of Bonus structure.
