Sandeep Chaudhary, CEO PeopleStrong commented, “In today’s Talent Economy, the negotiating power resides with the talent, and pay management has become central to any value creation for employees. The new digitally adapted world comes with new work-life & business models which complicate things even further for high-growth enterprises with an ever-demanding talent workforce.
We have, and continue to make significant investments in people & technology to fuel our 3X growth strategy, and are committed to helping enterprises solve complex HR problems with tech. With the inclusion of PayReview in our product portfolio, we believe enterprises will gain momentum in creating a truly people-centric organization with a future-ready workforce”
PeopleStrong recently revealed their HR Tech 4.0 platform which extends the power of their comprehensive platform to a HR SuperApp that helps organizations to create seamless employee experience throughout the employee journey.
With the integration of compensation tech to their human capital & talent management platform, HR & people leaders now have a single platform to orchestrate their strategies to power their growth potential.
“We are elated to join the PeopleStrong family.

Today, we are the only company to provide a seamless experience to organizations across all forms of remuneration – cash, benefits, and equity. With PeopleStrong, we will help enterprises build fair compensation practices at scale, and with insights, instil transparency in the most important yet complex part of their work-life – their salary”
