Patreon Benefits

Great healthcare, stingy about uses of fitness stipend.

$6,000 annual learning stipend, monthly wellness stipend, monthly internet stipend during COVID

We have competitive benefit package for small-midsized tech companies. Only problem I see is no 401k matching, which many tech companies have.

Patreon is doing really well as a company, and its generous benefits reflect that. At work (pre and post pandemic) it has free lunch and snacks which are excellent. It has unlimited PTO or vacation leave which is a huge benefit. The company health insurance is excellent. We get medical and dental benefits, including One Medical access. We also have mental health coverage. The only things I wish we had which we were 401(k) contributions, matching gift, and long term life insurance, but these will hopefully come as we get bigger and more successful.

Employees are granted unlimited vacation, but this policy is difficult to take advantage of even in moderation. Changing plans make it difficult to forecast ideal times to take vacations. As a result, you typically end up working a least a little bit on any vacation.

No communicated 401k matching system

Honestly there's not much to complain about. The only thing I would want us for the health stipend to be higher because it doesn't even cover half the price of my average priced SF gym.

They have all the benefits that other San Francisco startups have. No 401k matching yet though.

Some highlights: Patreon offers the Wealthfront Equity Plan, part of which includes an annual equity bump after 2.5 years. On top of that, after you've been at the company for 2 years, you have 7 years to exercise your options whenever you leave the company.

It's a great packages! Matching 401k's would be the dream.
