Bench to Be Acquired After Abrupt Shut Down
In a sudden turn of events, Bench, the accounting startup that unexpectedly ceased operations last week, is set to be acquired by Employer.com. The acquisition comes just days after the company’s abrupt shutdown left thousands of customers without access to their financial documents.
According to sources familiar with the matter, Employer.com will revive the platform and allow customers to log back in to retrieve their data. In a statement, Employer.com assured that customers will have the option to transfer their data or continue using the service under new ownership.
