Why We Do What We Do (And Why It Matters More Than Ever)

At The Shiftly, we don’t just fix broken payroll systems or clean up HR workflows. We do this work because we’ve seen what happens when small businesses are left to figure it out alone. Confusing contracts. Overpriced services. Tools that don’t actually support growth or compliance. And leaders who are too busy building something amazing to catch every hidden fee.

We’ve seen companies overpay by hundreds of thousands—without even realizing it. We’ve seen onboarding drag on for weeks, leaving new hires frustrated before they’ve even started. We’ve seen benefits that look fine on paper, while better options go unmentioned by brokers. Most of our clients realize within the first couple of months that they’ve already saved more than the total cost of working with us.

That’s the kind of math we like.

But our “why” is bigger than numbers.

We believe small and mid-sized businesses deserve the same level of strategic, transparent support as the Fortune 500, without the bloated cost or the jargon. We exist to be in your corner. To bring clarity. To simplify the complex. And to make sure your HR and payroll actually work for your business, not against it.

When we say we make HR and payroll so seamless you won’t need us anymore, we mean it. We build systems that scale, empower your team, and save you time, money, and stress—so you can focus on what matters.

If you’re tired of making do with systems that don’t fit, or paying for vendors who don’t deliver, we’d love to talk.

Let’s build better together.
