Why buyers look beyond TriNet

  1. Quote-only pricing

    TriNet publishes no list price for the PEO or HR Plus; fees vary by company size, industry, geography and services, and the $150 PEPM on its pricing page is only an example.

  2. Costs beyond the PEPM fee

    Benefit premiums and payroll taxes are separate from the fee, and background checks, drug screening and premium learning courses are optional paid add-ons.
