Hi!

If you are starting a small company with about 25 employees in NY, is it better to go with a PEO or try to get your own benefits on the side through a broker?

I'd like some feedback from people who are using PEOs - are they worth it? Or not really in the long run?

“PEO stands for a professional employer organization, and they allow companies to outsource certain key human resource administrative functions like payroll, benefits, workers' compensation, and training. They can also gain guidance to assist with maintaining compliance with federal and state employment laws.”
