13 companies that expanded their benefits in 2022

Published 2 Min Read

The workforce endured a lot of change throughout 2022, not only impacting where and when employees work, but the kind of benefits they expect from employers, too. 

The biggest employer takeaway from this past year is that traditional retention tactics like promotions and compensation won’t necessarily keep their employees from leaving their jobs —  but investing more in their lives could. According to a 2022 MetLife study, 73% of employees say that a wider benefit offering would keep them at their present employer for longer.

Amazon grew its existing partnership with cloud-based mentoring platform Chronus, which enables the organization  to match mentors and mentees based on career level, location and areas of expertise or learning. Employees can search for colleagues via additional filters like job title, and once matched, receive a plan and resources to help mentors and mentees both reach their goals. The program is available to all employees (including hourly workers) and has grown from 18,800 participants in 2016 to 159,000 employees so far in 2022.
