Unitherian

Amazing benefits and the most inspirational CEO.

Unitherian

UT is unlike any other company, it is a truly inspiring place to work. The company truly cares about it’s employees and goes to extreme lengths to provide the highest benefits and best work-life balance possible. I am extremely proud to work here.

Unitherian

In addition to my passion for my work at UT, the benefits are a big part of wanting to stay with UT. The work we are doing is cutting-edge, which feels incredible to be involved in. The benefits and perks of UT are unmatched.

Unitherian

I have been in the same role at numerous companies; UT is the only company that made me feel valued. When the pandemic hit, the company provided meals to employees for their families. UT routinely sends care packages with different themes for each season of the year to bring extra joy to everyone.

Unitherian

UT has spectacular pay and benefits. Managers truly care about their employees and work-life balance is encouraged.

Unitherian

UT treats its employees well both in and outside of the office. Management fully supports life outside of work; they are extremely tolerant of life’s needs, understanding that they sometimes unexpectedly interfere with work. This company puts its employees first, which is rare these times and in this industry. My favorite things about working here: the bonus opportunity, ESPP, health benefits, PTO accrual, and the support and thoughtfulness of our executive team during COVID.
