Our Benefits & Perks
We provide full health coverage for you and your family. That means that Stack Overflow pays 100% of your premiums. Additionally, we provide supplemental benefits such as telemedicine options.
We have a remote-friendly culture. Before the pandemic, we were 40% remote. Today, we’re fully remote through at least July 2021. So long as your timezone works for your team, work where you want.
While we’re fully remote, we’re supporting all employees with home office reimbursements and internet stipends. We also encourage employees to set their working hours on their calendar and in Slack to encourage flexibility.
We offer paid parental leave, a meal stipend, and the primary caregiver has the option to come back to work part-time for up to one year. We also have a special caregiver policy due to the pandemic.
Access to a personal and professional coach on a 1:1 basis to help develop your career. Additionally, all employees have an annual professional development budget of up to $2,500 for continuing education, conferences, and memberships, in order to advance their skills and knowledge.
We provide employees monthly fitness reimbursements as well as host regular yoga and meditation classes during the work day. That’s in addition to regular virtual cooking classes, “bev bashes” (what we call happy hours), and more.
We care deeply for our employees and provide paid time off to encourage their voluntary involvement in and support of programs that positively impact the quality of life within the communities in which we live.
- And much more such as Summer Fridays, a Calm subscription, and others!
