Overall Satisfaction with TriNet

Our entire organization uses TriNet to access our Employee Policies, Holidays, view paystubs, request time-off, elect benefits, update their mailing address, and fill out tax forms.
  • Mobile app is useful for my employees to see their paystubs.
  • I like my 2 designated TriNet reps to help me (HR Dir) when needed (with employee status changes or more complicated issues like drafting a separation agreement for me).
  • The benefit rates for employees are very competitive since TriNet's population is so vast (my company is in a co-employer relationship with TriNet; PEO, professional employer organization. A bigger pool results in lower overall premiums.
  • The system should make "rehire" available. Currently any re-hire has to be completely re-entered, manually, as if they were a new hire. I really wish "re-hire" was a function; even if it just captured basic data like name, address, DOB, SSN.
With the technology platform, I am not printing papers, faxing papers, manually writing forms. Onboarding is electronic as well which is a convenience for new hires.
TriNet platform is intuitive for both the admin (me) and the end user (employee).
  • Not having to spend time & resources managing payroll and benefits; and leaving it to TriNet is a huge asset.
n/a.
Because of TriNet, my company does not employ a payroll specialist -- we have TriNet. Because of TriNet, my company does not employ a benefits specialist -- we have TriNet. I am the sole HR employee and rely on TriNet for all transactional payroll & benefit needs; it frees me up to be able to contribute people strategies for my company (employee relations, performance management, employee training, organizational development, employee engagement, etc).
