Restaurant Group’s Payroll Pivots From Chaos To Calm in 5 Days
Tiffany Hadsell, CFO of Hunger Thirst Group, found herself in a payroll nightmare when their previous provider couldn't make the first payroll after a 6-week onboarding process, and she lost valuable employees. When Tiffany discovered Paychex, the chaos turned to calm as Paychex fully onboarded the entire staff in 5 days, streamlining HR operations across HTG's seven St. Petersburg restaurants.

Challenge
The Hunger Thirst Group struggled with an out-of-state PEO that overcharged and underdelivered. When they switched to another provider, they missed their first payroll deadline and staff started walking out. In addition to payroll issues, they also lacked essential services like E-Verify, compliance support, and 401(k) administration.
How Paychex Helped
When Tiffany contacted Paychex to step in, they immediately set HTG up with payroll … within five days! They also quickly fixed their employee handbook, set up E-Verify, streamlined tip reporting, helped start a 401(k) plan for the business to offer, and provided comprehensive benefits administration and compliance support.
Success Strategy
With Paychex, the Hunger Thirst Group can now focus on what matters most: running their growing business. They have saved $120,000 annually on payroll, reduced payroll processing time from 3 days to just 8 hours per pay period, and streamlined HR operations across all seven restaurants. By offering more competitive benefits, they are able to attract and retain top-tier restaurant talent in the community.
“It was the easiest transition I've ever had. Paychex made it feel seamless, and we’re not only saving time and money but also gaining more control over our business.” ~ Tiffany Hadsell, CEO of HTG
