Letter From Patriot's Employees...

We are a tight-knit group of American co-workers filled with grit and determination to provide the nation's most simple and affordable accounting and payroll platform for millions of American businesses and their Accountants. We experienced a very rough startup that we've never forgotten, and we endured many tribulations throughout our journey. But by the grace of God, we grew from a small business to a medium-sized business and eventually to a large business.

So we know the struggles American business owners endure. We know how hard they work every single day, and we admire their grit and determination to improve their corner of the world. They are true entrepreneurs. This keeps us humble and pushes us to make our accounting and payroll software as simple and affordable for them as possible - and support them with a mindset to leave no customer behind!

— Team Patriot

Core Values This is who we are...

Be Customer Obsessed.

In everything we do, we start with the customer and work our way backwards. Our primary focus is how we deliver tremendous value for the American businesses we serve.

Lead With Speed.

We believe in doing things quickly and not being afraid to take big chances. Moving fast and making bold moves is how we stay ahead.

Don't Cut Corners.

We don't skimp on quality. We make sure to own our technologies, development, and operations so that the entire experience is the best it can be.

Create a Better Us.

We're always improving by keeping it simple, saying no to things that don't help our customers, automating what we can, and spending our money wisely.

Follow the Golden Rule.

We treat others how we would want to be treated, disagree and commit, and welcome feedback from anyone, anywhere in the company.

Grow, Be a Leader.

We look for leaders at all levels and always put the customer and team above ourselves. We want to build a pro team of high-caliber players, with high accountability and trust across all individuals.
