Flexible work environment
Work is what you do — it's not who you are.
The work world has changed, and we've changed with it, embracing a hybrid approach where it makes sense to make room for individual preferences, teamwork, and family responsibilities. Whether you're working in-office or remotely, feel free to dress for your workday in attire that reflects your personal and professional brand.
Hybrid work and flexible schedules for a better balance of work and home life
Time to unwind
You have a life outside of work, and we want to help you live it.
We want you to be engaged and creative at work, and you can't do that if you don't have time to disconnect and unwind with family and friends (and pets!), or to pursue outside interests.
A happy, healthy employee is one of our strongest assets, so we take the mental and physical well-being of our employees seriously. Enjoy generous vacation time (that you're actually encouraged to use), plus five extra Definity Days (personal days) and two paid volunteer days.
In addition, you can take advantage of our many wellness programs that focus on your physical, mental, social, and financial health.
