What Our Clients Are Saying
Pam
Insurance Agency
“Highly recommended! Cornerstone Payroll Services has been a huge asset to our property management business. After dealing with a corporate payroll provider in the past, we were constantly frustrated by slow responses, unclear answers, and details getting missed.
With Cornerstone, Taryn and her team are knowledgeable, reliable, and incredibly detail oriented. They’re quick to respond, proactive when something needs attention, and we always know our payroll and reporting will be accurate and on time. Switching to Cornerstone was one of the best operational decisions we’ve made.”

Mr. Lei
Financial Company
“We are a quantum-tech financial company based in downtown Chicago. We were frustrated with the typical corporate payroll experience – slow response times, inconsistent support, and a constant feeling like we were forcing our business into someone else’s system.
What made our situation more complex is our team makeup: we hire a high volume of F-1 visa employees and interns, and we needed payroll and HR handled correctly, compliantly, and with real guidance – not generic answers.Cornerstone Payroll Services stepped in and navigated the HR landscape perfectly. They were proactive, clear, and incredibly organized -walking us through what mattered, helping us stay compliant, and making onboarding smooth for our international hires. The difference is simple: Cornerstone feels like a partner, not a vendor. If you’re a growing company that needs payroll done right—especially with complex hiring-I strongly recommend Cornerstone”

Shelley
Insurance Agency
“Working with this payroll team has been an absolute game changer for our business. Compared to our previous experience, the level of professionalism, communication, and reliability has been exceptional. In the past, it took over a year just to resolve an issue with my own pay.
We didn’t receive consistent payroll reports, and submitting hours often felt uncertain we were simply hoping payroll would process correctly. While it usually did, there were multiple occasions when employees were notified on a Friday morning that there was no pay. For team members living paycheck to paycheck, those situations were incredibly stressful. There were even times my own compensation was overlooked entirely. Since transitioning, the difference has been night and day. Concerns are addressed immediately, communication is clear, and payroll reports are provided consistently. From day one, I felt heard and supported. This level of service feels like a luxury compared to what we experienced before. I truly appreciate the reliability, responsiveness, and peace of mind this team provides. Highly recommend”
