PwC pioneers the movement toward a healthier and less stressed staff with its student loan repayment benefit. Geared toward new employees, the company offers financial assistance to help reduce debt owed to educational institutions. The mindful initative is launched by PwC with regard to the troubling state of student loans — a shocking $1.3 trillion currently in repayment in the United States.
PwC's student loan repayment benefit will give the opportunity to participating and senior associates to shorten the process by up to three years. The company commits to contribute $1,200 annually toward the outstanding debt of its workers.
This employee wellness initative will surely elevate worries and anxieties about money-related matters. As a result, PwC's support for its workers will create a wholesome community with a better and more dedicated work ethic.
