Zenefits Partners With Aetna

Zenefits, or shall we say Z2?, announced new updates as it seeks to further position itself as…an HR company with an app. “As soon as you go outside the valley, PTO becomes one of the top priorities for a company. If you rewind 5 years ago, if you choose a random place in the US, people hate requesting time off now. No one wakes up and says today’s gonna be an exciting day and I’m gonna request time off. We had to rethink how to make this extremely easy to use. That required some rethinking of the approach” – Zenefits product manager Caspar Yen turns a pet peeve to a problem. And aside from announcing new features that simplify stuff related to benefits, payroll and reporting, the company also announced its partnership with Aetna on level-funded employee health insurance plans .

 

PS. Speaking of the Valley, heard of Allbirds?
