In support of this model, roles have been categorized into one of three work location categories: 1. Onsite – roles where employees are expected to be onsite daily. 2. Hybrid fixed – roles that are a mix of remote work and onsite work fixed days each week. 3. Hybrid flexible – roles that are a mix of remote work and onsite work, but the onsite requirements have greater flexibility. (i.e. 5-8 days a month vs. set days each week). As an employee, if you are regularly scheduled to work 20 or more hours per week, you will have access to a wide range of comprehensive benefits designed to support your total well-being: medical, dental, vision, paternal leave and family leave programs, behavioral health programs, 401(k) with company match, life insurance, tuition reimbursement, and generous paid time off.
