Standard health, dental and vision insurance. One free class per semester. Paid holidays, 1 floating day, sick days. Pre-tax commuter benefit.

Comprehensive health, dental, and vision benefits for about $90/month (it may be more now). Only 7 paid holidays and 2 weeks vacation is not enough.

Not a great health plan. Currently under husband's because it's a better offering. Really have to fight tooth and nail for decent PTO and vacation in your contract.

Best: Enrollment in 401k, and they match up to 3%. Worst: No real commuter benefits or passes.

Benefits are not that good, PTO is minimal.
- Academy of Art UniversityNov 16, 2017StarStarStarStarStar
One free class per semester

They give you benefits so that is always a plus but they are very stingy and aggressive with the benefits. A lot of strings attached that they don't bother to share with you during the hiring process.
