Connection benefits

Providing comprehensive benefits is a key component to our total rewards strategy that encompasses competitive pay, professional development and positive work environment. Thank you for sharing your assessment.

Many of the “perks” are open to employees at all locations including discount tickets to events and attractions across the United States. In addition, there are certain discounts that are pertinent to various Connection locations based on the vendors’ presence in those respective areas. In addition to our tuition reimbursement program, Connection University delivers a significant amount of training annually per employee. Fostering an environment of continuous improvement includes encouraging our employees to acquire skills and knowledge to grow professionality. Providing opportunities to apply those new skills and techniques allows employees to achieve their fullest potential. You are encouraged to contact Connection University to review the courses and resources available to suit your area of interest. You are also welcome to engage your manager in a discussion about your professional development.

Regardless of your party affiliation, social media outlets, network television, newspapers and periodicals exercise a mix of creative hashtags and jarring headlines to raise awareness of the rising cost of healthcare. We are in agreement with your assessment that the cost sharing component of our benefit premiums is very good relative to other companies. Through our efforts to negotiate discounts and implement wellness initiatives, the increase to the employee premiums have been modest. Here’s to good health in 2018 and beyond.

Connection is pleased to provide a total rewards strategy relative to our benefit offerings. We believe our offerings are both comprehensive and competitive. Our employees well-being, wellness on a personal and financial front, is important. On that note, we recognize the value of time away from work. As a publicly traded company, it's important to our stockholders that management takes into account the needs of the business and staffing operations when reviewing last minute vacation requests. With adequate notice, management is better equipped to accommodate those requests.

We concur. Our “total rewards” package includes comprehensive benefits, competitive compensation, professional development and a robust work environment. Thank you for recognizing our investment in our employees’ well-being.
