Write a ReviewPaychex Flex Review
There was a lot of paperwork, worrying about the tax codes, a lot of office hours involved taking up a lot of my time. Now with Paychex, one day a week, 10 to 15 minute call…Paychex definitely helps us manage our cashflow.
That's when my accountant said 'Paychex is somebody that we recommend
Prior to using Paychex, we worked in house. I skated by just doing whatever I thought was the right thing to do. Then my accountant caught up with me one day and said, ‘that’s not a legal situation.’ That’s when I lost sleep, because that’s when I had a hit that came out of my pocket. That impacted me for seven to 10 months. And that’s when my accountant said 'Paychex is somebody that we recommend.
Makes my life a lot easier
What we learned in a discovery process with Paychex was all the different services that were available. That was music to my ears as a new CFO….From an efficiency standpoint, knowing we could have our 401(k) under your program, having the management and compliance done with one party obviously makes my life a lot easier.
