Lob Compensation & Benefits
Lob Employee Perspectives
I worked to create this initiative called the Lobster Happy Hour Program. Everyone at Lob gets a monthly $20 stipend to connect with someone on Zoom or in person in their own geographic area.
What People Are Saying About Lob
-
Healthcare Strength: Medical coverage is described as comprehensive from day one, with options for employees and dependents and added fertility and family‑planning support. Dental, vision, disability, and life coverage contribute to a robust health offering.
-
Parental & Family Support: Paid parental leave for all parents is positioned as generous, alongside fertility benefits, adoption assistance, and family‑support programs. Compassionate leave and occasional childcare support reinforce the family‑friendly posture.
-
Leave & Time Off Breadth: A remote‑first approach pairs with flexible or unlimited time off and dedicated volunteer time. Company‑wide days off and holidays broaden the available time‑away options.
