What's the Work-Life Balance Like at Justworks?

Justworks Employee Perspectives

We want people to associate being a Justworker with wellness, so that it’s not just a few resources on a website or intranet, but it’s really woven into the fabric here. I think we can all agree that wellness isn’t one-size-fits-all, by any means. We need to be focused on more than just mental or physical health. It’s not just about meditation every now and then. And it’s not just about going to the gym once or twice a week. It’s about all of those things together and how they complement each other.

What People Are Saying About Justworks

  • Remote or Hybrid Flexibility: Hybrid roles across NYC and remote hubs, with defined in‑office cadence, provide location and schedule flexibility that reduces commute impact. Team‑level hybrid norms create room to plan personal time around anchor days.
  • Time Off Access: Flexible PTO, mental health days, paid volunteer time, sabbaticals, and extended parental leave create multiple avenues for planned recovery. Clear time‑off programs give people practical options to step away and return recharged.
  • Mental Health Support: Access to tools like Headspace and Talkspace, plus dedicated company recharge days and ERGs, offers direct support for mental wellbeing. These resources can buffer high‑pace periods and help prevent burnout.
