Hire if you want to. Use us while you wait.
Hiring a good systems person makes sense for a lot of companies. The problem is the months between deciding to hire and that person being useful. We cover that gap, and plenty of clients keep us after the hire starts.
| Hiring someone | Cloud Nerd POD | |
|---|---|---|
| Time to start | 50 to 70 days to fill the job (SHRM). | Days. |
| Time to full speed | Several months of learning your systems. | First items live in week one. |
| Year-one cost for two hires | $540,000 with salary, benefits, recruiting, tools, and management time. | Growth POD, $30,000 a month ($360,000 a year). |
| Skills covered | Whatever those people know. | 40+ platforms, plus an architect from your industry. |
| If they leave | You start the search over. | Nothing changes. Every change is recorded. |
When the other option is the better choice
If you need someone in the office every day, or someone who will take on a broad role beyond systems work, hire. We'll help your new person get up to speed, and we'll hand over full documentation of everything we built.
