Attracting and keeping the best talent is crucial for long-term success in the competitive biotech industry. One of the best ways to stay competitive is to offer discounts on goods and services. Employee discount programs are used by companies to help retain their employees and provide ways to have a good work life balance. In this blog post, we’ll share some of the most impactful employee discounts that biotech companies should offer their employees to stay competitive.
Health and Wellness

Entertainment Discounts
Offering discounts on entertainment activities can go a long way in keeping employees happy and motivated. Discounts on movie tickets, theme parks, and local attractions can help employees de-stress after long hours of work. Such benefits can show that the company values its employees' work-life balance, leading to better retention rates. Which correlates with The Muse’s annual user survey that found "75% of respondents are planning to look for a new job sometime within the next 12 months [and] work-life balance is the most important feature in a new job (70% said so!)."

Engagement and Productivity
According to Gallup’s Exceptional Workplace Award, the companies that were on the list maintained engagement with their employees "by using their organizational culture and values to guide business decisions, embracing flexible and hybrid work while maintaining strong connections between managers and employees -- keeping performance, collaboration, employee wellbeing, and the customer at the center of how work gets done." By implementing wellness programs, you not only prioritize your employees' well-being, but you also create a connected community within your workplace for team members to bond over shared challenges and activities.
