Case Study: Diaz Foods achieves streamlined HR processes and improved employee experience with Paycor

With Paycor, Diaz Foods optimized HR processes and discovered new ways to enhance their employees’ experience

Diaz Foods, an Atlanta‑based specialty food distributor with more than 400 employees across 14 states, moved to find a new HR/payroll partner after their prior provider misfiled taxes for Connecticut employees, triggering fines. The company was also burdened by poor customer service and paper‑based HR processes—manual onboarding, PTO tracking and recruiting—which forced extra headcount to handle routine tasks.

Partnering with Paycor brought a consultative sale, transparent implementation and a dedicated support team, plus modules for applicant tracking, onboarding, time & attendance, benefits (Carrier Connect) and workforce insights. The switch delivered employee self‑service and real‑time reporting, saved HR up to 2.5 hours per new hire, allowed headcount reductions and staff reallocation, and noticeably improved the overall employee experience.
