Everspring Response
8yWe appreciate your feedback. I’m happy to hear that you enjoyed the “smart and friendly” Everspring team (we agree!), and am sorry that your overall experience did not match your expectations. We are proud of what the Everspring team is building and work hard to make Everspring a great place.
I want to address inaccuracies in your post regarding employee attrition and Everspring benefits.
With respect to attrition, Everspring’s companywide retention is very strong, with annual employee turnover rates that are half those of comparable companies. The number of employees who have chosen to leave Everspring is far smaller than claimed in your post. Specifically, the number you note is greater than the total number of people who have chosen to leave Everspring in the past year across all departments combined. Similarly, we have not had anywhere near 5 resignations in the Technology group in this period. We value and support our team in developing their careers with Everspring, and our strong employee retention suggests that our team values these opportunities as well.
As part of our efforts to support our employees, we seek to provide benefits that are valued by the greatest proportion of our team. Although we are a new and relatively small company, we have prioritized providing excellent health benefits and a flexible paid time off package. Industry benchmarks and data on national averages shows that Everspring’s benefits plans are in line with – and on many dimensions better than – those of comparable companies and national averages. We use a top tier provider (Blue Cross Blue Shield), and proudly pay a greater share of the plan costs than most companies, thus leaving our employees with a smaller out-of-pocket share and more cash in hand. In terms of paid time off, Everspring offers a comparatively generous and flexible paid time off program when compared to other companies in our industry and of similar size, thus giving our team options about how to use their PTO.
Thank you for the time you spent with Everspring. We wish you good luck in your next position. If you have additional feedback regarding areas in which Everspring can improve, please reach out to me directly.
