Employee Benefits

Rewards and Time Away

All employees start with a minimum of 18 days of paid time off, plus paid holidays.

Employees have the option to carry over a limited amount of unused time, and after their first year of service, they can also purchase additional PTO when enrolling in their benefits.*

The Cigna Group offers many other benefit programs that allow you to take time away to care for others.

Medical Benefits

We offer five core medical plan options that cover in-network preventive care. This includes well child visits, prenatal care, physicals, immunizations, and cancer screenings at $0.

If enrolled, you have an opportunity to earn wellness incentives - up to $800 for employees and $500 for covered spouses/domestic partners.

All plan options include integrated pharmacy benefits, too! There is no charge or deductible for most generic, preventive medications.

Dental and Vision

We offer two dental plan options for employees to choose from. Both options cover preventive care at no cost.

Our vision plan covers routine eye exams and eye wear (glasses and contacts). The plan covers both in-network and out-of-network services. Corrective lenses, frames, and contact lenses are covered every 12 months.

The plan does not cover both contact lenses and frames in the same benefit year.

Financial Support

The Cigna Group offers a 401(k) with company match along with other tools and resources to help our employees build a healthy financial future.

We have an Educational Development Program (pre-authorization required) that supports employees in their professional development and growth.

In addition, employees can take advantage of a 30-minute virtual coaching session or get a head start on saving for college with a 529 savings account.

Employee Well-Being

Global Wellness Challenge

The Cigna Group supports an annual Global Wellness Challenge for all employees. Participants track exercise and other wellness activities in this 6-week, team-based event designed to improve health and vitality.

In 2023, we had 28,605 participants log over 60 million minutes of activity!

Preventive
Care

If enrolled in one of the medical plans, employees and covered dependents can receive their annual flu shot, biometric screening, and all immunizations and preventive care covered at no additional cost.

Many of our offices host flu shot and biometric screening events on site, making it simpler for employees to receive preventive care support.

Employee Assistance Program

Confide Behavioral Health Navigator SM is our enhanced employee assistance program (EAP). Confide delivers personalized concierge-level service to help you get the support you need when you need it.

Confide is a confidential benefit for employees and their household members to help solve personal issues and better balance their life.

We're committed to supporting our employees' sense of security. Through our Caregiver Leave program eligible employees can receive wage replacement for up to 8 weeks. Caregiver Leave allows employees to have needed time off to bond with a child, care for a covered family member with a serious health condition, care for a covered military service member with a serious injury or illness, or for qualifying exigencies as defined under the federal Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA).

Community Ambassador Fellowship Program

At The Cigna Group, we’re committed to giving back to the global communities in which we live and work. And we encourage our employees to do the same through our Community Ambassador Fellowship Program. Each year we choose up to 15 Community Ambassador Fellows to represent our organizations and complete a project to positively impact the health and vitality of the individuals in the communities where we live and work. Eligible employees have the opportunity to submit a project proposal and be selected for a Fellowship for up to three months, during which time they are on paid leave, and receive up to $20,000 to support the execution of the project.
