Sequoia One specializes in helping tech startups:

Right-fit benefits

Sequoia One’s employee benefits solution is specially designed to keep your employees happy and healthy while mitigating the turbulence inherent in carrier negotiations.

Smarter compensation

Ditch the spreadsheets and approach employee compensation strategically with the only PEO for small businesses that offers specialized comp guidance and tools that control your people spend. See and predict how your total compensation structure (spanning salary, bonuses, equity, and benefits) impacts your bottom line, establish pay equity from day one, make smart decisions about workforce growth, and ultimately guide board discussions with reliable, always-available data.
