Wellness & Benefits Program

We don’t just “talk the talk” when we say we want to be an employer of choice. We have completely overhauled our benefits and perks program to provide excellent options and coverage to our employees at an affordable rate and allow them to save for and invest in their future and focus on wellness. We also offer onsite diagnostic services and vaccines at no charge to help our employees get ahead with their wellness!

Our healthcare coverage includes medical, dental and vision benefits to our employees at no cost, and employees can add family members at a significantly subsidized rate. We also offer, at company expense, short term disability, long term disability, group life insurance and accidental death & dismemberment (AD&D) coverages.

Employees can choose to add extra life insurance and AD&D for themselves and their families at competitive rates. We also offer supplemental programs including cancer insurance, accident protection, supplemental disability, critical care and medical bridge coverages. We even offer pet insurance for your furry family members!

Savings on healthcare create an opportunity for our employees to invest in our matching Safe Harbor & Roth 401k retirement plan, where the company will match up to 4% of contributions with immediate vesting.

We also believe that time away means healthy and happy employees, and we have a generous PTO & Personal Days policy that further enhances our 12 paid holidays and an additional day off for birthday celebrations.

And we’re not finished! We will continue to research and refine the wellness and lifestyle offerings to our team.
