Berkshire continually strives to develop and deliver the best products and services to support our clients, and we rely heavily on your feedback when considering the strategic direction of our company. As the need for regulatory, compensation, and diversity-related products and services continues to grow, Berkshire is working to ensure we can help you meet your company’s objectives.

As a result of these new demands and opportunities, we have made the difficult decision to sunset our Applicant Tracking product, balanceTRAK. The product will be retired on December 31, 2024, providing you and your team with 18 months to transition to a new vendor.
