Golden Hippo Compensation Employee Reviews
All
Positive
Constructive
What is the best part about your compensation package?
On top of my financial compensation, we have really good health insurance and dental that are covered by the company. This has helped me save tons of money on medical bills, without lowering my take home pay.
Review from Marketing Dept
Free health care and dental, and the ability to buy up in the dental plan to add special services. The opportunity to participate in a ESOP is awesome.
Review from Product Dept
Hands down the health insurance plan.
Review from Legal Dept
Financial compensation; base salary and bonuses, health insurance, retirement plans, paid time off, and flexible work schedule.
Review from Operations Dept
Golden Hippo does a good job with benefits and fair pay. I've never had any issues with the compensation process and I think the company offers some benefits that other companies do not. The health care plan for individuals and families in particular is very good.
Review from Sales Dept
Access to GH products lines
Review from Operations Dept
I like our medical benefits. I like that I can work from home when I want to....and I LOVE our office gym and fitness classes! ...the large fully stocked kitchen is pretty sweet too....
Review from Marketing Dept
The best part about my compensation package is that it feels truly well-rounded. I’m not only fairly compensated for my work, but I also really value the benefits, especially the health cov
Review from Marketing Dept
Free health insurance is the best part of my compensation package. This is why I believe my company truly cares about me
Review from Marketing Dept
They look each year to make sure the benefits and pay remain competitive
Review from Marketing Dept
The best part is it's company supported, so it takes one more worry away.
Review from Admin Dept
KPI Bonus opportunities. Free health coverage for EE only. Fairly priced for dependents. But I do wish we had an HMO Option because hospital stays and surgery can get expensive.
100% paid insurance as well as esop
Review from Marketing Dept
For me, it's the investment in the company. It just makes it feel like everyone is working for the same goal and you have a literal investment in the success of the company.
Review from Marketing Dept
the 401k match is amazing
Review from Design Dept
ESOP - the ability to have an additional retirement fund is fantastic
Review from Marketing Dept
Health insurance and KPI bonuses
Review from Marketing Dept
dental, vision, and the health benefits
Review from Marketing Dept
I really appreciate that our insurance is covered by our benefits package, it makes such a huge difference.
Review from Marketing Dept
I think the benefits, we have different types of mental health resources.
Review from HR Dept
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Similar positions are compensated more and benefits don't make up enough for the difference
Review from Marketing Dept
I think compensation hasn't caught up with the current economic climate at all. I am currently working the same job (with more experience) and making less than I made at my full time job 3 years ago.
Review from Marketing Dept
Golden Hippo has a lot of great perks and benefits, but it feels as though these are done to make up for our base salary being so uncompetitive. I would much prefer a higher salary over so many company events and perks.
Review from Marketing Dept
market rates not adjusted often. have to wear multiple hats and not compensated accordingly.
Review from Marketing Dept
A compensation reflective of the effort/hours I work would improve my feeling about our company. We function with a skeleton crew and I often find myself working 20-40% more time than Im supposed to. For context, my compensation level is roughly around 100% of market.
Review from IT Dept
Pay is a bit low for role requirements and expectations.
Review from Customer Support Dept
I think based on the market and cost of living for my role my wages should be comp'd higher
Review from Operations Dept
I've recently taken on more responsibility thanks to a shift in the company and would like a raise/promotion associated with that responsibility rather than the paltry 4% for good performers that doesn't really track with inflation.
Review from Marketing Dept
Better market balance to jobs and responsibilites
Review from Marketing Dept
The promotion and title structure makes it hard to get an "industry-standard" promotion/raise.
Review from Marketing Dept
A larger raise or promotion after the time spent here
Review from Finance Dept
Pay does not reflect the cost of living in California, and increases are minimal.
Review from Customer Support Dept
I have prior experience in my career and took an internship in hopes that it would turn into full time or extending it. I have worked very hard since being here (my manager has said this too) and she wants to extend my internship but move me to part time. Full time & salary would make me feel better
Review from Marketing Dept
I was making $5k more annually at my previous job. While I'm working hard to close that gap in compensation by proving myself as a valuable employee, that's the only thing I feel weird about bc it feels like a step backwards even though I'm more experienced and better at my job now than I was then.
Review from Marketing Dept
Higher salary. The cost of living is still outpacing pay increases. Real world expenses seem out of control. The $20 Min wage at fast food is having a ripple affect across the pay in all markets, and thus prices are adjusted up to cover the new cost.
Review from Operations Dept
I would feel better about a 401k matching of 1:1 instead of 1:0.5 The workload seems to be much higher than I had expected, especially for the compensation. I've noticed a lot of it is reactive in nature - it may be helpful to instill a proactive work structure in our departments.
Review from IT Dept
My salary is about 15% lower than my previous position which had the same title and was in a state with a much lower cost of living. I do understand that I am new and there is potential for merit increase, but I do feel like my position and workload could warrant a slightly higher initial salary.
Review from Marketing Dept
I've been with the company for a while now, and moving up is very challenging. My role's responsibilities keep expanding without a salary raise or a new title. To help move things along and complete tasks on time, I frequently have to fix issues that others should be handling.
Review from Design Dept
High cost of living .
Review from Product Dept
I think I should get a raise.
