Gusto Payroll Navigation Is Non-Obvious for Edge Cases Like Severance Payments

HR administrators using Gusto find the payroll section difficult to navigate for non-routine payment types like severance, where the workflow is buried or unclear. The discoverability gap causes delays and errors in processing special payments that have legal and compliance implications. SMB payroll tools generally optimize for the standard bi-weekly paycheck and underinvest in edge case workflows.
