I absolutely ADORE Gusto I absolutely ADORE Gusto! It is SO easy to use - extremely intuitive, and if you can't figure something out, their customer service people are responsive and right there willing to help. They have made this process SO much easier than it used to be for us, and I wish I would've switched to them long before now!

Extremely frustrating experience with… Extremely frustrating experience with Gusto benefits. I've called several times, had to keep explaining the same issue several times. They keep coming back with half answers over email, and the next time I call it's a new agent and repeat full cycle. Benefits department was clueless on questions on benefits after employee is offboarded. Tried transferring to a different department even though I asked to be placed on the call back list. For someone managing several responsibilities, Gusto has wasted so much of my time.

I have spoken to their customer support… I have spoken to their customer support 10 times about an issue. Every time they send me the same robot response but never read what I am asking. They say they have paid a late fee because they paid the government late. Yet when I call the IRS they say this hasn't been paid. Every attempt to ask for confirmation I just get a robot response that this has already been paid. Now talking today to another customer support team member today they said the payment was made on April 8th, but it isn't the same amount as what was due. So why all these previous emails saying they paid the bill back in February and why isn't the amount the same as the amount that's due. Of course I'll need to followup with the IRS and be put on hold for hours to confirm this. So much time wasted dealing with this issue. Such terrible customer support with the Tax specialist on their team. Even the customer support person I talked to said they couldn't get through to them and that it's annoying.

I have nothing good to say about this… I have nothing good to say about this company. Each customer service rep at Gusto has told us different things for the check reversal we initiated. Come to find out none of them are able to see in real time if funds have actually been disbursed or not. They say give it 3-5 business days. We are actively looking to find a different payroll company. Spare yourselves the headache and look elsewhere for payroll services.

Hiring via Gusto far superior to EoR providers After a horrible experience with an Employer of Record, we concluded that it couldn't be any worse for us to manage the hiring of a US based employee ourselves. We had a US based company already, so decided to use Gusto to manage the rest. Super easy onboarding, manages health insurance, 401K, payroll and registration processes. I'm impressed. Yes more do do that an EoR, but at least we don't have to deal with their errors and their "attitude". Oh and also its $40 a month not $400++++
