The place where workers are happiest with their pay isn't a Big Tech company based in an expensive coastal city, but rather an HR business located in the Sun Belt.

Paycom, an HR and payroll tech company based in Oklahoma City, was named the No. 1 company for best compensation, according to the latest analysis from employee review site Comparably.

The Comparably ranking considers 20 million anonymous employee reviews from the last year and recognizes top employers based on workers' evaluations of their total compensation package, including how happy they are with their salary, raises, bonuses, benefits, stock and equity.

Workers were asked to respond to prompts including:

• Do you believe you're paid fairly?
• Are you satisfied with your benefits?
• How often do you get a raise?
• Does your company give annual bonuses?
• If applicable, are you satisfied with your stock or equity?

One review from a Paycom employee noted the company's generous commission structure, time off and health-care benefits. Meanwhile, at No. 3 Adobe, an employee praised the cloud company's unlimited PTO, and a reviewer at No. 5 Salesforce was happy with their consistent raises and generous equity.

A growing share of people aren't happy with their pay, according to recent data from Pew Research Center. As of this year, 29% of U.S. workers say they're dissatisfied with their salary, with many concerned that their pay hasn't kept pace with the cost of living, they're being underpaid for the quality or amount of work they do, they don't earn enough to pay their bills or they're paid less than a coworker who does similar work.
