Perks & benefits

Whether you're planning for maternity leave or want to spend time with your adopted baby, we have you covered. We provide 12 weeks paid maternity leave for expecting mothers and 2 weeks paid parental leave for adoption or expecting fathers. And, let’s not forget about our furry family members. Pet insurance is available for purchase through your plan, and gives you some peace of mind by providing assistance for unexpected veterinary costs. We also believe in giving back, and that we belong to a community, so what better way to give back than to volunteer using our 8 hours paid volunteer time.

We’re serious about work, but we like to have fun while we do it. So naturally, we have holiday parties, free BBQ lunches, company Olympics, Halloween Chili Cook-offs (yes, you can dress up as a vampire), or take the little ones to the Santa Brunch. We even celebrate Donut Days.... with lots of donuts!

Who doesn't like free lunch? Well, it’s not free, but almost free-ish. Employees receive a $3 daily subsidy at our cafeterias. Also offered is our employee discount program where you can receive discounted tickets from theme parks to theaters.

We make sure your healthcare needs are covered with a great insurance program that includes medical, vision, and dental. Our St. Louis site even offers a free onsite Health Center. Learn how your lifestyle impacts your health through our Wellness Program. Looking to get more active, take advantage of our gym discounts and subsidies.

There's nothing better than taking a nice vacation or 5. Receive 20 days of Earned Time Off in your first year. Don’t forget to celebrate our Company Holidays with our 10 Paid Holiday Days every year. We strive to help employees cope with the challenges of integrating work and life by giving them a degree of control over work and family lives with our flexible work arrangement integration.

We love people who never stop learning, and we’re happy to help you do it with our $8,000/year tuition reimbursement. Need to polish your skills? Attend a training class within our Mérieux University at any time.

Our Employees are our best asset. And we want you to remember that every day. We believe that our employees should be recognized for going above and beyond in their efforts. Our Employee Recognition Program makes it possible for you to recognize your peers for their exceptional contributions. We also like to recognize employees for their dedication to the company. Service Awards are provided to employees that have achieved service milestones during the current calendar year.

Money Money Money! Who doesn’t like extra money for Retirement? Our 401(k) plan matches 75% of the first 6% of your pretax or Roth contribution after the first 90 days. To receive the match, employees must contribute. But that’s not all! Employees also receive 5% of their eligible pay through our Enhanced 401(k) program. Employees do not have to contribute to receive the Enhanced 401(k). Plus! We believe in having our teams share in the success of the company, which is why we’ve created a profit-sharing plan and we offer a variety of employee savings options. Thanks to bioMérieux’s initial public offering, nearly one in two current team members are bioMérieux shareholders.
