“Solid coverage, but recently changed insurance providers. Current provider has a history of bad service, but hasn't caused any problems yet.”

Great 401k Match, stock options, annual performance bonus, great health benefits.

Employer contributions for healthcare are above average. Vacation allowances could be more negotiable based on years of experience.

The company strives to improve benefits every year. It could be a larger 401K match, or the introduction of volunteer days off.

Guidewire has a wonderful overall benefit package. Would love to see tuition reimbursement added.

While the insurance benefits are fairly average for a software company, they offer quite a few options for both medical and voluntary insurance. They provide a separate pool of sick leave in addition to PTO, which is a nice change from most companies. Guidewire tries very hard with their perks, especially in the satellite offices. They maintain the Silicon Valley culture throughout the entire enterprise with free snacks and drinks, and frequent company social events.

Overall the benefits package is good. I have made a lot of use of the health insurance this year for myself and my family. It has all gone very smooth.

Solid equity program, some 401(k) matching
- GuidewireOct 12, 2016StarStarStarStarStar
The stock bonus offering is the best. The health insurance is pretty good. The 401k match is not the best.

Guidewire regularly gives company stock as a long term incentive

401 k matching contributions are good. Medical insurance plan is good. friday work from home is good.
