The SU Advantage
Worklife
SU understands the importance of balance between one’s work and personal life. That’s why we have devoted many of our resources toward competitive wages and benefits. We benchmark over 50% of our jobs against other organizations in both higher education and industry to maintain a competitive salary structure and attract and retain highly skilled employees.
We also offer a number of benefits that go beyond the traditional benefits packages of other organizations and that compliment our medical, dental and life insurance options.
