Q: I am consulting with a small (65 employee) firm that will be growing moderately over the next year or so. We would like to transition from our current system which is strictly payroll to having both HR and payroll functionality. I would love to hear any feedback on such systems that you may have encountered for similar size companies.
A: A few people responded recommending ADP and Paylocity (a few each for both) and one response for Ulti-Pro/Workday. Paylocity does seem to be getting very positive ratings though from those who are utilizing it.

Alcohol on-site at company events
Nine of you responded to my question regarding serving alcohol at company events.
Two of the nine said no alcohol is allowed on company premises. Alcohol is served at the holiday party, but drink tickets are usually used to control the quantity. I didn't find out if employees can purchase alcoholic beverages, but I assume they can.
The rest of you said that you have alcohol (usually wine and beer) at special on-site events (occasional Happy Hour, All Employees' Meetings, etc.) You had strict controls including 1-2 drink tickets per employee, small quantity available, and short time period 1-2 hours. One company reminds employees that this is a privilege and if it is abused, it will be stopped.
Thanks for all of your responses.
