Lose It! Benefits Overview

Lose It! offers incredible benefits, flexible hours and the opportunity to work on a team that balances hard work and fun with just the right ratio. Are you looking to join a small, inclusive team that uses problem-solving and creativity to get things done? Come check us out. We take pride in what we do and how we deliver. Our employees say it best: “Coming from a large company and changing jobs within the last year, I have seen a lot of long lists of different benefits/perks that some companies offer. When reviewing these lists of benefits it doesn’t take long to see that the goal of most of them is to keep employees happy while spending more time at the office. The company trip to Paris felt completely different. It really felt like exploring the city/country with our family was just as important as the work we were doing while we were there.” - Rob King, Infrastructure Engineer "My favorite perk has to be fully paid for health care. And it’s not just fully paid, it’s a top flight plan. Knowing that I’m getting the best possible healthcare for my family and that it’s not even a monthly expense for me is huge." - Senior Software Engineer
