The Whole Person Promise:

At Bandwidth, we’re pretty proud of our corporate culture, which is rooted in our “Whole Person Promise.” We promise all employees that they can have meaningful work AND a full life, and we provide a work environment geared toward enriching your body, mind, and spirit.

How do we do that?

Well…


+ 100% company-paid Medical, Vision, & Dental coverage for you and your family with low deductibles and low out-of-pocket expenses.

+ All new hires receive four weeks of PTO.

+ PTO Embargo.

When you take time off (of any kind!) you’re embargoed from working.

Bandmates and managers are not allowed to interrupt your PTO – not even with email.

+ Additional PTO can be earned throughout the year through volunteer hours and Bandwidth challenges.

+ “Mahalo moments” program grants additional time off for life’s most important moments like graduations, buying a first home, getting married, wedding anniversaries (every five years), and the birth of a grandchild.

+ 90-Minute Workout Lunches and unlimited meetings with our very own nutritionist.





Are you excited about the position and its responsibilities, but not sure if you’re 100% qualified?

Do you feel you can work to help us crush the mission?

If you answered ‘yes’ to both of these questions, we encourage you to apply! You won’t want to miss the opportunity to be a part of the BAND.
