- 401(k)
- Another significant Aquilent benefit is our 401(k) program. Employees can defer up to the IRS annual maximum. Aquilent match is 50 cents on the dollar, up to 6% of deferred compensation (no matching contributions in excess of 3% of compensation). Vested 100% after 3 years. Employer match can be amended or discontinued anytime by Aquilent on a prospective basis. Employees must be 18 years or older to participate.
- Educational Assistance
- Aquilent encourages all employees to take initiative in their growth and to stay on top of new technologies and processes. That's why we developed Aquilent University—it's not an actual place, but rather a wide range of programs designed to support all aspects of employee development. Aquilent offers a tuition reimbursement program, skills-based training through external or internal programs, a target certifications program, as well as reimbursements for book and professional memberships. Internal learning opportunities include Aquilent 101, where you'll learn all about our processes and business approach, and Brown Bag Chats where employees share information among colleagues in an energetic forum.
- Paid Time Off
- Aquilent employees earn between 15 to 20 days of Paid Time Off (PTO) based upon years of applicable professional experience. Over an employee's tenure with Aquilent they will gain more professional experience and will be rewarded accordingly with additional PTO (to the maximum of 20 days). Aquilent also provides 10 paid holidays per year.
