  • 401K Matching: 50% employer match on up to 6% contribution (up to 3% employer contribution), with match starting Day 1, 5 year vesting schedule
  • Comprehensive Benefits: Medical, Dental, and Vision coverage effective Day 1; paid short-term disability; company-sponsored life insurance; and more
  • Job Stability: As an essential healthcare service provider, we’re recession-proof and non-seasonal
