Case Study: Zenni Optical saves 5 hours/week on onboarding and cuts HRIS busywork with Rippling

Zenni Optical saves 5 hours a week with automated onboarding

Zenni Optical (Zenni) struggled with time-consuming, error-prone onboarding and a disjointed HRIS approval process: People team members were manually sending welcome emails, coordinating IT and background checks, and handling HRIS updates via Slack. To address this, Zenni adopted Rippling and its workflows/automations to rethink and streamline onboarding and HR operations.

Rippling deployed 10 automations—auto-generated welcome emails, automatic IT notifications, Checkr integration for country-specific background checks, self-service HRIS updates for HR Business Partners, and automated reminders—removing manual steps and approval bottlenecks. As a result, Rippling reduced Zenni’s onboarding time by 5 hours a week, saved 1 hour a week on HRIS updates, cut errors and typos, and delivered a more consistent, professional onboarding experience.
