The benefits most sought after by employees have changed post-pandemic, making workers less concerned with in-office perks and more interested in what companies are offering in terms of work-life balance. In order to continue to attract and retain top talent, tech companies are adopting benefits like remote work, home-office stipends, and generous paid time off (PTO) policies.

Studies show that employees want more flexibility, and employers are seeing the benefits of giving employees what they want. Happy employees lead to productivity, and with the most significant driver of employee happiness being trust, companies are brainstorming new ways to make their employees feel valued.

72% of workers say that having unlimited PTO (UPTO) would increase their company loyalty, and the trending benefit is continuing to gain popularity despite controversy. While UPTO is great in flexible environments, it won’t work for companies that still thrive on overwork, triggering many companies to shift their cultures and adapt for emerging talent.

Companies like Flatfile are investing heavily in their employees by offering untraditional benefits, like a whopping home-office stipend of 10K. GitHub has even made “work happier” one of their culture pillars, boasting a flexible schedule and encouraging their workers to take time off when they need it. Companies like Roku have gotten rid of company hierarchies, offering their employees complete autonomy, claiming that hiring the best talent and trusting them to do their job on their own terms will deliver the best results.

If you’re interested in working for a company that promotes work-life balance, offers UPTO, and boasts other unconventional benefits check out our list below.

Security in the Skies: 5 High Altitude Balloon and Satellite Startups Hiring Now

Nearly nine decades after the Hindenburg disaster, some speculate we’re entering the Second Age of the Balloon. “As all these objects fall, a new space race is rising,” Vox (https://www.vox.com/world/2023/2/7/23588464/suspect-spy-china-balloon-sputnik-moment-space-race) proclaimed. Tens of thousands of balloons float into near-space every year, and the numbers rise every year. The National Weather Service alone launches around 60k high-flying balloons each year. The Pentagon spent nearly $4B over the past two years on its own high altitude balloons, according to Politico (https://www.politico.com/news/2022/07/05/u-s-militarys-newest-weapon-against-china-and-russia-hot-air-00043860). Why the interest in such old-school tech? “They’re cheap, easy to transport, can be fielded in large numbers and are payload agnostic,” industry expert George Howell wrote. Tucson, Arizona-based World View (https://spacenews.com/world-view-emphasizes-remote-sensing-as-it-prepares-to-go-public/), a stratospheric ballooning company, last month announced plans to go public via SPAC merger. The company develops a “stratollite” that provides high-res imagery for extended periods. (The company also offer space tourism.) Colorado-based Urban Sky (/company/urban-sky) is creating what it claims as the first ever reusable stratospheric balloon. Called “micro-balloons,” they’re the size of a VW bus and can hover in near space to collect data over urban areas. Company founder Jared Leidich (https://www.smithsonianmag.com/air-space-magazine/04_fm2017-alan-eustaces-jump-1-180961678/) has some chops in this arena, having designed the space suit used in the world record space dive in 2014 via a balloon at nearly 136k feet. Near Space Labs (/company/nearspacelabs) invites people to “step inside a new way of thinking about all things geospatial imaging (https://nearspacelabs.com/blog/).” The company's high-altitude balloons that carry a small, autonomous robot called Swifty to capture the world around them at 60k to 85k feet in the air. The company says it’s done zero carbon emissions and recently launched (https://www.zdnet.com/article/near-space-labs-provide-free-high-resolution-imagery-to-universities-nonprofits/) a program to make its high-resolution Earth imagery available to universities and nonprofits for free. Sounds fascinating, right? Luckily, with a new wave of space technology, comes a brand new, cutting-edge wave of jobs. Check out 5 top startups aiming skywards and hiring now.
