Challenges

When Adam joined Wahlburgers in 2022, the company was struggling with a new payroll provider that fell short of expectations. The software lacked structure and effective communication tools, forcing the HR team to work around the system instead of leveraging its capabilities.

Before partnering with APS, Wahlburgers also faced broader operational challenges, including disconnected payroll, HR, and benefits systems, inconsistent communication, and limited project oversight. Reporting across multiple EINs was cumbersome, and the team had limited visibility into support tickets and progress tracking, making it challenging to maintain efficiency and accountability.

  • Disconnected Payroll and HR Systems
  • Limited Reporting and Visibility

Impact

“The prior software was a constant struggle. There was no clear project management, poor communication, and limited functionality for how we operate.”
