Who we are
Jellyvision’s ALEX® is on a mission to improve lives by helping people choose and use their benefits. We’re raising the bar—for benefits and the employee experience (for our employees and those of the customers we serve)—by scaling personalization, compassion, and an earnest intent to be helpful in all that we do.
Jellyvision people are creative problem solvers who use good judgment, give honest feedback, engage in real debate, and snack frequently. We’re curious, humble, kind, and biased toward action. And we sweat the details to create great experiences for those we serve.
