Case Study: Probi achieves streamlined global HR and 75% faster payroll processing with BambooHR

Managing a Globally Distributed Workforce Through Enhanced HRIS

Probi, a Sweden‑headquartered biotech with 151–250 employees and operations in the U.S. and Singapore, struggled with fragmented HR data, an antiquated clock‑in system, and uneven performance reviews. Lacking an HRIS and needing strict GDPR compliance, the company relied on spreadsheets and payroll software that made time tracking, PTO, headcount visibility, and fair performance processes difficult.

After hiring VP of HR Basudha Bhattarai‑Johansson, Probi chose BambooHR from over 40 solutions to centralize payroll, time tracking, and performance management. The system went live in four weeks, enabled standardized global performance reviews, achieved 100% hourly worker participation in time tracking, cut payroll processing time by 75%, increased job post views, and saved about 40 hours per month.
