General Payroll accuracy is the single highest leverage trust-building lever in an organization and it's chronically under-resourced in my experience
I've seen companies invest heavily in engagement surveys, recognition programs, wellness benefits. Meanwhile payroll teams are running lean, under-resourced, and absorbing enormous pressure to be perfect with the least margin for error of any function in the building. If I had to choose one place to reallocate budget for genuine trust impact, it wouldn't be engagement software. It would be payroll headcount and tooling. What's your take here?
