How EEG managed their acquisition and absorbed over 30 workers with Deel EOR

Esports Entertainment Group, una empresa de deportes electrónicos y juegos de azar en línea, está impulsada por el rápido crecimiento de los juegos y los deportes electrónicos. Su misión es conectar al mundo con el futuro del entretenimiento deportivo para unir a los aficionados y a los jugadores. No solo se limita a los videojuegos, EEG se asocia con equipos profesionales de la NFL, la NHL, la NBA y la FIFA y tiene influencia en todo el espectro de todos los niveles de los deportes electrónicos y los juegos.

Time-consuming payroll As a global company, Esports Entertainment Group ran a team of remote employees across marketing, business development, and product. Before Deel, they spent days manually working through excel spreadsheets to pay their team. The process was already unmanageable internally, but managing acquisitions added even more obstacles to the equation.

Usando DocuSign, una agencia y el email, a EEG le resultó difícil tener una transparencia total sobre los nuevos contratos y los nuevos miembros del equipo. Las copias de los documentos firmados debían almacenarse manualmente y la mayor parte del seguimiento se realizaba en hojas de cálculo. Una vez que el equipo comenzó a crecer, el proceso se volvió minuciosamente largo y la gestión de los flujos de trabajo rápidamente se volvió abrumadora.

Rocky onboarding With a recent acquisition of Helix eSports and ggCircuit, EEG absorbed over 30 contractors across various countries. They needed a way to onboard new team members quickly and a platform to help facilitate the process. In addition to managing existing teams manually, acquiring entirely new team members brought new challenges that compounded their current issues.

After coming across an ad for Deel on Facebook, the team realized it was the perfect solution. Deel EOR and Deel Contractor Management helped facilitate EEG’s onboarding of the entire team and provided a solution to centralize all their global payroll. With locally compliant documents and flexible payment options, Deel transformed days of work into a few hours and made managing acquisitions a breeze. Since then, EEG has onboarded 48 team members, spanning 20 different countries.

Mergers and acquisitions can be a logistical behemoth. Acquiring team members from different countries you may not have entities is often a rocky road, and it can be difficult to provide them with a positive employee experience, and smooth onboarding. Deel EOR turns those challenges into a walk in the park. Deel centrally manages all compliance and documentation requirements, so EEG doesn’t have to worry about things getting out of hand when they acquire new team members.

The ease of use, simplicity, and efficiency of Deel Contractor Management and Deel EOR has helped them completely overhaul their payroll workflow and onboarding experience for new employees. Instead of taking months to set up entities, find local payroll providers, accountants, and local labor specialists, Deel turns the logistical nightmare of mergers and acquisitions into a dream come true.
