Medical coverage begins on the date of hire, with a choice of a consumer-driven plan or PPO-type plan. The medical plan premium also includes dental and vision coverage.
Great-West offers flexible benefit accounts that allow employees to set aside pretax dollars for anticipated out-of-pocket health care and dependent care expenses.
Our 401(k) plan allows employees to set aside pretax money for retirement, with immediate vesting of company-matched funds and a wide choice of investment options.
New employees begin to accrue paid time off immediately upon hire. We also offer eight paid holidays each calendar year, plus two floating holidays.
At Great-West, we offer financial support to an array of charitable organizations — and encourage our people to do the same. Through Great-West’s Employee Matching Programs, we match employees’ charitable contributions, the time they volunteer, and the funds they raise for eligible organizations, based on program guidelines.
We provide basic life insurance coverage at no cost to employees. Additional low-cost life insurance is available for employees and their families, as well as low-cost, optional accidental death and dismemberment coverage.
Basic Long-Term Disability (LTD) coverage is provided at no cost to employees. Supplemental LTD coverage can be purchased on a pretax basis.
We offer flexible work hours and a business-casual environment in many departments. We provide all employees tuition reimbursement, an Employee Assistance Program, and credit union membership. Pre-tax commuter benefits and free parking are offered at many sites, and our larger locations have onsite cafeterias. In addition, our metro Denver headquarters features an on-site free fitness center, convenience store, dry cleaners, bank and walking distance to light rail.
