My company uses it

… My company uses it. When you work for a company that uses Rippling, you are “co- employed” by both your company and Rippling. Your company does everything as far as hiring, firing, HR, management, etc. But as far as taxes, insurance and benefits, you “work for” Rippling. It allows small companies to have the benefits of a larger company. Your company pays the PEO per head. It also serves as an SSO provider. Another startup I worked for in the past used Insperity.

I have never heard of either company before and I'm starting to wonder whether I'm the odd one out. For those as lost as me, a cursory look tells me that Rippling is a "Workforce management system (HR, IT, Finance)" while Deel is a "Payroll, Compliance and HR Solution".

They have a PEO option, but FWIW they can also be used as a payroll provider / HR system (benefits access, vacation tracking, etc.) without a PEO.

Thank you for the explanation. It's been something I've been meaning to research because I'd never encountered this before my current employer and it's become something I will actually ask about in the future. I prefer smaller employers (500 or less) but this is pretty fantastic. I've worked for a Fortune 500 employer with a solid, expensive-but-generously-subsidized healthcare plan, a tiny employer with expensive coverage that wasn't all that great but I've never been able to select from three different providers with a few options a piece. It was a "killer feature" for me. My family has low-to-moderate medical needs, I like HSA eligible PPOs if the deductible/cost is right. I was able to find three plans that were taken by my family's specific specialists where I could max out the HSA deduction and pay less than half what I had at the last "typical employer plan" company. This came too…

I personally use Deel so that as a one-person company I can access large group benefits. Using their EOR saves me about $5000/year on health insurance compared to an ACA policy.
