Case Study: Urban Chestnut Brewing Company achieves streamlined HR, onboarding, and payroll with Paycor

A need for a complete HR, Scheduling, Onboarding and Payroll solution led Urban Chestnut Brewing Company to Paycor

Urban Chestnut Brewing Company, a four-location St. Louis craft brewery with about 110 employees pre-pandemic, faced fragmented HR systems that made payroll, scheduling, recruiting, onboarding and benefits slow and error-prone. Payroll data didn’t flow between systems, applicant tracking and onboarding were manual, benefits enrollment was paper-based, and employees flooded HR with routine requests — all of which threatened a smooth rehiring process as operations resumed.

Paycor consolidated HR, recruiting, onboarding, payroll and scheduling into one platform with mobile self‑service, automated applicant tracking, intuitive benefits selection and streamlined onboarding. The result: faster, more accurate payroll and hiring, managers can build schedules quickly, employees access paystubs and request time off without emailing HR, and administrators save significant time while improving compliance and data integrity.
