Pros

100% healthcare coverage (medical, vision and dental) benefits is great except Flexible PTO

Cons

Side did a background check on me and everything went well. I work for Side more than a year, mostly from remote and during the Pacific time zone. I do travel back and forward to my own country once and a while only visit my family. Apparently, the downside is that HR department think I should be present in the US when I do my work. I do work during business hours in Pacific time zone and I do attend video meetings even out of the US. I feel HR doesn't want too many employees having Flexible PTO at once. I only used a day or two every couple of months, they complain about it. Side advertise / offer each job with perks and description about Flexible PTO is one of them.

Side Response

Thank you for taking the time to provide thoughtful feedback. I’m happy to hear that you enjoyed our benefits with 100% healthcare coverage. It is important for us to provide really great benefits to our team, and we work hard to ensure great coverage. Our team is constantly looking at ways to improve our benefits package, including how we implement Flexible PTO and remote work policies. We always try to accommodate our team's needs for balance and flexibility with business needs. For some collaborations, it is necessary to be present in the office, and we try to balance these needs throughout the organization. We appreciate your thoughts and are committed to providing an even better benefits package in the future.
