Benefits at Athennian
We’re a remote-first company built on trust, autonomy, and accountability. With
that flexibility comes responsibility — we’re a lean team where everyone is
expected to bring their full effort and expertise. We believe in real work-life
balance: every employee starts with a minimum of three weeks of vacation, five
sick days, and six personal or flex days, plus a company-wide winter holiday
shutdown so everyone can rest and recharge together.
Our benefits are designed to support your well-being in meaningful ways. You’ll
have access to comprehensive health, dental, and vision coverage, long-term
disability, accidental death & dismemberment, an Employee Assistance Program,
and a Health Spending Account to help cover additional expenses. We also offer
flexible parental leave benefits, including options for top-ups or additional
paid time off — because family matters. And to help you get set up for success
from day one, we provide a work-from-home allowance.
