To directly answer the question, yes, a Health Spending Account (HSA) is an option for PwC Canada staff. As other fish have mentioned, provincial health care covers most costs for citizens and permanent residents. When you make your benefit choices with PwC, you choose your level of coverage for dental, vision, and drugs and some extras like disability and life insurance. Depending on the options you choose, you may have some left over dollars that you can allocate to an HSA. You can also take that money as (taxable) cash, or put it in your RRSP (401k equivalent).

Not an expert on Canadian healthcare, but unlike the US, isn’t healthcare in Canada largely government provided? As such, would you need an HSA like the US?

For Canadians and permanent residents everything but non-medical dental, vision and drugs are covered by taxes. The remainder is what your health benefits cover.

Not sure how it works for a non citizen or non PR.

It’s so hot, and instead of answering recruiters emails/calls I now am just trying to survive. I answered 3 calls randomly yesterday. 2 were crappy. One was a $87k offer with apple through Tata consulting services— which idk if that’s shitty or not. It’s “remote till Covid ends”

Woke up today and tech mahindra recruiter from last week wants to put me through a technical interview at $110k for a role in Redmond WA for an iOS dev role @ $110k. I think it’s also “remote till Covid ends” but idk 🤞

So I have been offered a job at multinational company as a Data Engg. It was a part of the hiring event, and literally got selected with a VERY VERY SIMPLE technical assessment, and a 45 minute interview.

The pay should within my expectations, but I am unsure about the company and the team.

Just that the process was way too easy so quick. I do not even know the hiring manager.

Has someone been a part of this before? Any suggestions if I should go for it? What should I ask?
