Benefits

We want all employees to know that they are valued members of our team. We know that we are expecting a lot from them when we ask them to maintain our high standard of excellence, so it’s only fair that our employees would expect a lot from us in return. That is why we work hard to provide a wide array of valuable benefits, such as:

401k – We offer a generous $2 match for every $1 an employee invests in a 401K, to 6% of salary. We also provide annual education on our 401k plan and an opportunity for employees to schedule 1-on-1 consultations with our 401k plan manager.
Health Insurance – It seems each year most people are paying more but getting less when it comes to health insurance. We chose to create our own solution as we watched this trend progress. True to our innovative nature, we built an affordable and effective self-insured health insurance program that has become an international model for like-minded businesses. This includes employer contributions to a health savings account (HSA) as well as access to a Healthcare Consultant to assist with health insurance related decisions.
Dental – Preventative services are covered at 100%.
Vision – Vision is included in our health benefit package with free eye exams and a $0 copay on certain frames.
Life insurance – Metis pays 100% of this benefit which includes accidental death and dismemberment insurance at 3x the employee’s salary up to $300,000.
Disability insurance – Metis pays 100% of this benefit which has both long and short-term offerings.
Vacation/Sick Days – We provide generous paid time off with rollover options, including vacation days, sick days, and paid parental leave. We also recognize 11 paid holidays to support our staff's well-being.
Employee Assistance Program (EAP) – Employees have access to EAP professionals and relevant resources 24/7 for themselves and their dependents. This includes up to 5 free face-to-face sessions with a counselor and 1 legal consultation per issue. If an employee needs to speak with a counselor about a separate issue (divorce, depression, anxiety, etc.), the counts reset!
SmartScripts – Employees can save significantly on prescription medication through SmartScripts and GoodRx and also receive free delivery.
Wellness program – Our wellness program is designed to help employees and their spouses meet their health goals. It provides additional contributions towards medical benefits for employees who actively participate in the program.
Gym membership – Our main office building contains a state-of-the-art workout facility that is available to our employees. The gym is fully staffed with professional trainers who lead various exercise classes or provide individualized coaching. Gym access as well as the classes are provided to employees at no charge.

World Class Facility

It may seem strange to mention our building when discussing perks of employment, but we believe the physical work environment impacts performance and job satisfaction. That’s why we went to great lengths to ensure that our home office is a comfortable and modern place to work.

Our recently renovated building features both individual workstations as well as open, collaborative spaces designed to accommodate various work styles. It boasts a large, fully-staffed gym that is accessible to all employees. Our beautiful café and lounge are not open to the public but are reserved exclusively for our staff and tenants. Not only is the food delicious, but it is also subsidized to offer fresh, healthy food to our employees at an affordable price.

Competitive Pay

Metis offers competitive pay to all employees. We are located in the Roanoke Valley–an affordable area central to the state–and we diligently monitor the industry to ensure that our staff members are well compensated.

From our generous benefit package to our heavy investments into the health and development of employees, it’s clear to see that Metis is committed to promoting quality of life for all employees. We want to provide an environment that meets employee needs holistically and enables them to find a long-term home in Metis, and we understand that fair compensation is a big piece of that puzzle. The core of our company’s success and long-term stability is due to the loyalty of our customers, as well as that of our employee base.

Professional Development

Working at Metis goes beyond simply getting a paycheck. We hire bright and curious minds that have ambition to grow, and we want them to be a part of our team for the long haul. That’s why we invest heavily in professional development opportunities for our team.

We work hard to promote engagement and job satisfaction at every level of our organization from our entry level positions to our executive leadership team. All employees are encouraged to apply for an intensive development program for rising stars. In addition, we work with a leadership consulting group to provide individual and group coaching to our supervisors, managers, and executives on a regular basis.

We know that our team members have personal and career goals, and we’re here to help them achieve those aspirations.
