Basic Capital: PEOs, Unpacked
PEOs can be a great deal. They can also quietly become an expensive one.
Most companies pick a PEO early, when they need payroll, benefits, and HR support in one place. A few years later, they’re paying for a bundle they’ve outgrown and aren’t sure what the alternative looks like.
In this session, I sit down with Bobby Lucarelli from Sequoia One to break down how the PEO market actually works, from someone who sees it from the inside.
We’ll cover:
What to look for when choosing a PEO, and what’s just noise in the sales pitch
How PEO health plan pricing works, and why year-one rates don’t always last
The signs it’s time to unbundle, and what that move looks like in practice
Questions to ask before you sign or renew
This session is for HR, Finance, and Ops leaders at growing companies, whether you’re evaluating a PEO for the first time or wondering if yours still fits.
It’s part of our benefits webinar series to help leaders make smarter decisions about their second-largest expense after payroll.
