Client Testimonial: Wireless Retail Business

To whom it may concern:

On behalf of Express Locations, LLC (dba T-Mobile) I am writing this letter to recommend the services of Stratus.hr. We strongly endorse Stratus.hr be considered as your future Professional Employer Organization (PEO) Partner.


For the past ten years we have enjoyed a successful partnership with the Stratus.hr team. Over this time we grew from a wireless retail business with 35 locations, 170 employees and $20M annual revenue to 140 locations, 1,200+ employees in 14 states and $100M+ in revenue. Through this time we relied heavily on Stratus.hr as our “HR and Payroll Department.”

Their expertise in areas of HR, Benefits, Payroll, Taxes, Legal Matters and Training have been an integral part of our business operations. We have consistently received prompt responsiveness, data accuracy, as well as a relentless drive for automation and efficiency improvements from the entire Stratus.hr team. This PEO partnership was seamless to our employees and put us as the employer in a more favorable position to attract and retain talented employees.

Each year we diligently revisited our cost structure and have always re-elected to continue our partnership as a result of the quality and value that Stratus.hr provides. Having the essential HR and Payroll functions covered by Stratus.hr allowed us to focus on growing our core business. With Stratus.hr we have always had confidence our employees were being well taken care of. It is worth noting that we received the “Circle of Excellence” award for the past 5 years since we began an independent annual Employee Survey conducted by NBRI - ranking us in the top 20th percentile of employers across the nation.

I would not hesitate recommending the Stratus.hr Team for your business, regardless of size. I am certain you will experience many tangible and intangible benefits, like Express Locations has, by having them as a committed long term business partner.
