Instrumental Benefits Overview

At Instrumental, we've valued benefits & perks that impact employee happiness the most. For example, we've put cash towards having an office close to the Caltrain which would shave off commute time for folks to spend more time with their families. We offer generous equal maternity & paternity leave at 1.5-2 months and have an unlimited PTO plan for our team to take rest as needed. We offer competitive cash comp and equity portions to our employees. We additionally have built promotion structures/comp leveling across the company and each employee has a clear pathway & plan upward.
