TPT (formerly Teachers Pay Teachers)
Benefits at TPT (formerly Teachers Pay Teachers)
Building for Diversity and Inclusion is one of our core company values here at TPT. A huge part of this is making TPT a place where people feel like they can thrive, regardless of what stage of life they're in. This means we have a competitive parental leave policy (three months for new parents to bond with their little one), 20 days of PTO, 7 wellness days to look after your physical and mental health, as well as fun perks like catered lunches in office 3x weekly.
As a company rooted in the belief that teachers must be at the heart of everything we do, we also make time twice a year for teacher-visits, either virtually or going into local classrooms in the tri-state area to shadow teachers in action -- to remind ourselves of the importance behind our mission.
