  • TriNet has allowed us to keep a small team since they handle benefits and payroll.
  • TriNet keeps us in compliance since we utilize their HR.
  • TriNet gives us the ability to over great benefits to our employees at a very reasonable cost - something we wouldn't have been able to do on our own, considering we have less than 10 employees.

  • When I started at the company, we were less than 10 people. We have now grown to nearly 50 across almost 20 states. TriNet has made it so incredibly easy to bring on new hires in new states without having to fuss with much paperwork.
