MambaHR vs Justworks

Justworks becomes your co-employer.

MambaHR does the admin while you stay the employer.

Justworks is a PEO (professional employer organization). It co-employs your staff, bundles benefits and gives you a support team to call. MambaHR does the HR admin for your team without co-employment. You keep your tax ID and your benefits broker, and you approve what matters.

The difference

What changes for your team.

You stay the only employer.

A PEO co-employs your staff and shares some employer duties. MambaHR does not change who employs your team. It does the admin, and your company stays the employer.

Answers in Slack, with the law cited.

Justworks sends harder questions to its support team. MambaHR answers in Slack: family leave (FMLA) eligibility, final pay timing and pay transparency, each with the law cited. Judgment calls come to you.

Keep your benefits broker.

PEOs bundle benefits into the package, so leaving one means shopping for new coverage. MambaHR does not run benefits, so your plans and your broker stay where they are.
