Pros

They operate balancing professional and practical, to best service both the employees and the employers. They legal support team is super competent.

Bart C.

Head of People and Culture

Onboarding experience, from both the administrative and employee/contractor perspective, is some of the best I've experienced. Their CS team is also responsive and supportive.

Amanda H.

People Ops

Starting from designated Customer Success Manager to Use Happiness Team, they are always ready to help, and VERY responsive.

Jennifer J.

HR Professional

Cons

We've had multiple issues with onboarding and offboarding, wrong information being shared with employees and all at a costly expense to us.

Rachel G.

Head of Operations

Nearly every step in the setup had an error that I had to catch and fix, and still months in there are errors in employee invoices that take weeks to resolve.

Eli Y.

CEO

Support is appalling, their processes are messy, calculations are not clear, nor right.
