GENEROUS BENEFITS PACKAGES
COMPETITIVE PAY AND CAREER GROWTH
NRG provides higher than industry wages, rewarding outstanding performance. We have the commitment to promote from within, providing clear visual career paths that illustrate the necessary skills required to become proficient at each step during career progression. Employees are supported so that they may meet their personal and professional goals.
EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN (ESOP)
This is, without a doubt, the benefit that sets us apart from other employers. Employees who work 800 hours or more each calendar year (defined by W-2), receive shares of the company, which are held in trust until the employee separates from employment. Following separation, distribution is made for the vested portion of the account.
401(k)
NRG encourages our employees to plan for their future. All staff over the age of 21 are eligible to enroll in our 401(k) program on the first day of the month following their date of hire. This benefit also includes access to professional retirement portfolio investors who will provide individual guidance to assist with retirement planning.
401(k) MATCH
To further support our commitment to your future, NRG currently provides an annual match to your 401(k) deferral. NRG will match 100% of the first 3% and 50% of the next 2%. The match dollars are contributed to your ESOP account and is 100% vested at the time of the contribution.
EMPLOYEE ASSISTANCE PROGRAM (EAP)
Confidential, free-first-call service is available to all staff who may be experiencing a personal crisis.
WHOLESALER CLUB MEMBERSHIP
We know what it costs to stock a household with the basics. NRG is proud to contribute towards your household’s wholesaler membership (with select wholesalers).
TENURE/LSA PROGRAM
A program to celebrate the long-term dedication of our employee-owners. Following your second year of working 800 hours or more, you have reached employee ownership status and are welcomed into the NRG O.G. Club with membership to the NRG Lifestyle Spending Account (LSA). The LSA entitles you to up to $400.00 annually to spend on approved wellness/lifestyle purchases. Additionally, once you reach year five, you are entitled to specially selected gifts to commemorate your tenure at each milestone.
