Finding a Reliable Team to Take on the Big Guys
"Everything with ADP is a lot quicker and easier. The website's nicer than what I'm used to, and they are really quick at answering my questions." - Tina Boes, Office Manager, Molding Solutions
Tina Boes, office manager for manufacturing company Molding Solutions, has seen a lot in her nine years with the company. When working with other payroll companies came with more issues than services, she needed to find an HR solution that could do the job to support her business needs. Hear from Tina as she shares her story below:
Falling Through the Cracks
We're a small company in an industry dominated by large businesses. We can offer a little more competitive pricing, which I think gives us an advantage. But we need to take care of our employees, and we don't have money to waste.
We brought in another company and ADP for quotes. The other company won on price, so we went with them. But then everybody on my team at that company left, and things started to fall through the cracks.
For example, we encountered issues with employee medical contributions and understanding retirement benefits. I believe it was these issues that helped contribute to low participation rates in our FSA and 401(k) plans.
Another miss for us was the lack of guidance around employment best practices. When we presented any questions around termination they would instruct us to contact our employment lawyer. We were basically paying for a service that was missing something important to us.
A Lot Quicker and Easier
Then Brooke with ADP walked in at the perfect time. She gave me a quote that beat what I was getting on both pricing and services. We decided to go with it.
Now, I have my own team I can contact about our ADP services, like benefits and 401(k) offered by the ADP Retirement Services team.
And, a few weeks after we signed up, Brooke told me ADP was now offering access to a third-party provider of prepaid legal services, and I jumped at it. Luckily, we haven't had to use it yet, but it's great to know it's there, if needed.
Everything with ADP is a lot quicker and easier. The website's nicer than what I'm used to, and they are really quick at answering my questions.
Between the services they offer and the money they are saving us, ADP is definitely a better fit for us.
