Wellness, development and social perks

Wellbeing

Our wellbeing and self-care initiatives are some of the most popular team perks. In 2022 - 2023, we invested in programs promoting better self-care and each year we look at new ways to support our employees. Choose to make use of one or all of the wellness perks to support your work and life.

Social perks

Work is better when you can make real connections with your team. A schedule of Symbio social events, team led clubs, volunteer days and birthday leave make it all the more easier to build relationships with colleagues and community.

Symbio social events

Each year, we have an exciting calendar full of social events for our team to take part in. Previous events include everything from dragon boat racing on Sydney Harbour to online Chess tournaments, along with A Taste of Harmony, where employees brought in foods that reflect their cultural origins. In addition, we get together every Friday in our social space in the office to catch up over drinks.

Join a club

At Symbio, there’s endless ways to meet people and connect with the wider team. We have different clubs available to join, as well as MS Teams groups to participate in. Some of our current MS Teams groups include the Jokes, Pets, Gaming, Veggie Patches and Recipe channels, where you can post photos, share ideas or just have a chat about your out of work interests.

Volunteer day

Take advantage of our annual volunteer day to help out with a charity of your choice or join a volunteer day with one of our partners. One of our previous volunteer days was spending an afternoon at Ronald McDonald House, where duties included cooking up a Mexican feast, arts and crafts with the children and face painting.
