Customer Quotes
Achilles Group provides all of our HR functions. Prior to them, I was trying to do it myself, but I know nothing about HR. They make sure we do things correctly, and help in sticky situations like terminations and employee conflicts. With 51 employees, I can't afford to hire an HR professional. Instead, for less cost, I get more expertise from Achilles Group.

Achilles Group provides full HR services for us and acts as consultants on major issues where we know we have exposure. We can't justify the expense of bringing someone with their level of expertise on board. They provide a tremendous value to us, especially from a risk management standpoint. They've helped with interviewing, testing, forced reductions, employee evaluation plans, incentive plans and compensation plans. They obviously have experience dealing with a variety of situations.

We lost our HR Director and chose to work with Achilles Group instead of re-hiring. They truly understand our business and our needs. They are plugged into our business and handle the various situations that arise. They're a valuable HR resource for our managers, and offer cost-effective executive-level expertise.

My favorite thing about Achilles Group is their responsiveness. Willie's is a very hands-on organization, and we appreciate the same in our partners. I've been pleased with their willingness to jump right in and get back with me quickly when I need an immediate response. We communicate well. They are open to suggestions and listen objectively and then we develop solutions as a team.

Achilles Group has been our HR department for the last 3 years, and helped us grow from 400 to 600 employees. Our managers can focus on running their restaurants, knowing that they are supported by an experienced HR department. They know how to apply HR to the restaurant business and save us time. Achilles Group is an integral part of our team.

Few firms understand the unique HR issues restaurateurs face. Achilles Group not only has that restaurant experience, but they have more experience than anyone else we interviewed. Achilles Group allows us to focus on our restaurants, while they focus on our HR infrastructure. They manage our HR infrastructure with the focus on our operational needs because they understand operations drive our profitability. They are an asset to us, and are a key part of our growth strategy.
