The DNA team has been great to work with and smooth sailing so far in ~6 months I've been using them. I compared their service compared to other EOR services like Remote.com, and the DNA pricing is half the cost. If you need an EOR service in South Africa, DNA is definitely a great option!Posted on Megan WolfswinkelTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. DNA Employer of Record has been supportive and informative, consistently providing updates on company policies, payroll, and benefits. Their efforts to improve employee well-being, such as implementing the Night Shift Allowance and the one-year anniversary allowance contributing to our monthly income, demonstrate a strong commitment to recognizing employee needs and appreciating employees. I also want to express my deep appreciation for Natalie and Sonja. I was in a very difficult situation and urgently needed time off, and they were truly amazing in helping me work something out. Their care, consideration, and understanding made a huge difference, and I am incredibly grateful for their support. Sonja is especially dedicated to helping us understand protocols and is always willing to explain and guide as much as needed. She consistently puts in the effort to streamline processes, making things clearer and more efficient for everyone. Her commitment to improving our experience is truly valued. DNA continues to make positive strides in communication and employee support, and I look forward to seeing their ongoing efforts in enhancing the workplace experience.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
