What People Are Saying About Benchling
-
Wellbeing & Lifestyle Benefits: Dedicated mental‑health therapy/coaching plus professional and financial coaching, alongside a monthly wellness stipend, indicate robust wellbeing support. A company‑wide winter holiday shutdown further reinforces recharge time.
-
Leave & Time Off Breadth: Unlimited PTO, paid sick leave, paid holidays, and a company‑wide shutdown between Christmas and New Year’s create broad access to time away. Paid sabbaticals after milestone service years expand long‑tenure rest options.
-
Parental & Family Support: Generous paid parental leave (around 16 weeks in the U.S.) and fertility benefits are emphasized. These provisions, along with family‑friendly resources like an onsite Mother’s Room, strengthen support for caregivers.
