Fun facts about Paylocity Holding Corp

Quirks, history, and lore behind PCTY — the kind of stuff that makes a stock memorable.

1
The Basics
U.S. software company · mid-cap · listed on Nasdaq · headquartered in suburban Chicago, Illinois.
2
The Numbers
Annual revenue in the range of roughly $1 billion, serving over 36,000 clients — almost all of them businesses, not consumers.
3
The History
Founded in 1997 and built from the ground up as a cloud-native platform — no legacy mainframe baggage to haul around, which is a bigger deal in its industry than it sounds.
4
The Secret
Its software lives squarely in the unglamorous but mission-critical world of payroll, HR, and workforce management — the stuff companies can't afford to get wrong on a Friday.
5
The Lore
It targets the mid-market sweet spot — too big for QuickBooks, too small to interest the enterprise giants — and its customers tend to be very sticky once onboarded.
6
The Giveaway
The name is a mashup of "payroll" and "velocity" — because fast, modern payroll and HCM software for mid-sized employers is literally the whole pitch.
