Providing Exceptional Payroll, HR, and Tax Solutions for the last Twenty Years!
Greenshades is an expert in tax compliance and reporting, because that's where we started.

Over time, we realized how much compliance knowledge we had acquired and recognized that we could do more. Initially Greenshades was focused on a much smaller piece of the payroll puzzle, subsequently we started branching into providing solutions for additional compliance needs, like garnishments and year-end tax form distribution; eventually, we stepped into HR and evolved into a full benefits and employee self-service platform. From there, we created our standalone payroll system. Now, as a leader in payroll and HR, we effectively handle everything from hiring to retiring in all things HR and payroll.

One morning employees showed up to work and found a bunch of kittens stowed away in a car. The fire department came and rescued them, someone even adopted one! If you look at our Google Street view, you can see the commotion.
