What else? (benefits, specifics, …)

  • An annual profit-sharing program (max $3500/year)
  • A comprehensive group insurance program fully paid by the employer (medical/dental/vision, short and long-term disability, travel, health credit account)
  • A super competitive retirement plan where the employer contributes 7% if you contribute 1%
