I was told that the benefits don’t cover that well for the newbies
avatar-of-creator
A year ago
I mean it sounds uneven, why shouldn’t we take it that way?
avatar-of-creator
A year ago
Because it makes sense, the benefits don’t cover well for freshers because they just get the base version of benefits whereas the older employees get their PTO and benefits increased with their stay at time
You comment as
Yeah the health benefits package was good as it should in modern times.
