No

Just because we have more remote positions, does it mean we have more remote benefits

PwC should do, cause we are just charging to the client anyways, not to EY

Should I be maxing our Roth IRA and then focus on 401k contributions?

Do we know if there is a sponsoring partner that oversees this benefit/ program that I could have more of a heart to heart conversation with? Not getting too far with the general email box and admin contact. From the benefit policy documentation, my understanding is that EY reimburses employees for surrogacy / adoption related expenses up to $50k lifetime. However, anything related to IVF or medical procedures has to go through insurance (also limited to $50k lifetime benefit). Continued…
