Positions to be replaced by artificial intelligence

Company to continue hiring in open positions

In a notice obtained from Paycom by Griffin Media, the company has cut over 500 positions as part of a company restructuring plan to replace back-end jobs with artificial intelligence.

Why is Paycom eliminating positions?

Paycom says the restructuring is "due to efficiencies in advanced automation and AI-driven technologies."

A Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification, or WARN notice, was filed and affected employees were notified on Wednesday morning.

Paycom says the layoffs will only impact non-client-facing, back-office roles.
