Case Study: The PCA Group achieves scalable, automated talent management — manages 1,000+ U.S. employees with a three-person HR team with ClearCompany

One of the world’s largest fragrance distributors builds a complete talent lifecycle with ClearCompany

The PCA Group of Companies, a vertically integrated global fragrance and cosmetics distributor serving 75 countries, scaled rapidly from about 55 employees to nearly 1,500 and faced the twin challenges of continuously hiring hard-to-fill entry-level roles and building a comprehensive performance and engagement platform while automating HR processes to stay flexible through market shifts like the COVID-driven e-commerce pivot.

ClearCompany delivered a full talent-lifecycle solution—applicant tracking, onboarding, performance reviews, Surveys, automation templates and integrations—creating a “living journal” for each employee and streamlining communications and workflows with hands-on support from a Customer Success Manager. The outcome: faster hiring and development, visible career paths (four VPs began in the warehouse), and efficient HR operations handling 1,000+ U.S. employees with just three full-time HR staff.
