Would you rather have something that looks nice or actually works? Especially when it comes to nontrivial things like benefits and payroll? Don't you think it's a bit silly for you as a user to be swayed to use one thing or another by a pretty interface?

I will go with a old school bank over a NewCo tech bank any day when it comes to nontrivial things like storing my money.
