Case Study: Calvary Chapel achieves simplified payroll and expert HR support with Paycor

Calvary Chapel - Customer Case Study

Calvary Chapel is a growing nonprofit that operates a church, a school, a retail store and three restaurants, with nearly 1,000 full‑time, part‑time and stipend employees. As the organization expanded, payroll and HR became increasingly complex (different tax rules, tipped staff, clergy pay). After leaving Paycor for a competitor that over‑promised in demos but delivered poor support, Calvary Chapel quickly realized they needed a partner with deeper HR expertise.

Calvary returned to Paycor for subject‑matter expertise and a full HR suite—ATS, onboarding, Perform HR and Payroll, time & attendance, Benefits Advisor and ACA—which addressed their payroll complexity and restored reliable support. The result was smoother HR and payroll operations and renewed confidence in a partner that understands their unique business needs.
