Thank you for your feedback. Excellent benefits are top priority at 89 Degrees, as we understand that professional success depends on our employees wellbeing. We offer comprehensive packages, which include competitive salaries, top notch medical and dental insurance for the whole family and much more. Our 2018 benefits open enrollment period brought on some impressive changes this year, as we lowered premium costs, in an era where insurance premiums continue to rise, increased coverages and added a 401K match, just to name a few! Employees receive free Life Insurance, STD and LTD and 26 days PTO as a beginning new hire. We will continue to strive to improve benefits, so that our employees can lead healthy, happy and enjoyable lives at work and outside of work.
