Become a Striver

Whether you work directly with patients or internal teams, Strive Health gives you the opportunity to make an impact on the lives of chronic kidney disease patients and their families.

At Strive, we’re transforming kidney care. While our mission, vision, and values-based culture play critical roles in that transformation, our people (Strivers) make it happen. Strivers are delivering compassionate kidney care and creating an incredible place to work.

Health and Well Being

We care about your physical well-being, so your insurance starts the day you join strive.

Medical, Dental & Vision
We offer a variety of medical (HMO, PPO and HDHP) plans through United Healthcare and Kaiser, two dental plans and one comprehensive vision plan.

Life & Supplemental Insurance
Strivers are provided 100% employer-paid life insurance, short-term disability and long-term disability coverage as of your start date. Additional supplemental insurance, including accident, life and critical illness, are available.

Flexibility and Time Off

Transformational work takes high performance. We believe Strivers perform better when they are fully charged, so we provide flexibility to support your inner well-being.

Hybrid-Remote Work
Our hybrid-remote approach ensures team members can work from home while collaborating in person when needed. Strive provides a full technology package and monthly technology reimbursement.

Vacation Time
Full-time, regularly scheduled Strivers can use vacation time for travel, relaxation or volunteering.

Sick Time
Life happens, so we provide up to two weeks of paid time off annually for illness, medical care, caregiving responsibilities and other types of emergencies.

Well-Being Days
Annual Strive-wide well-being days off provide Strivers the opportunity to focus solely on their well-being.

Paid Holidays
Annual Strive-wide holidays allow all Strivers to disconnect together to reflect and celebrate.

Paid Leave
Our 12 weeks of paid birth giving leave and four weeks of paid bonding leave start day one. We provide a four-week paid sabbatical after five years to return recharged. In alignment to our mission, we offer a paid living donor leave if any Strivers choose to become a living donor.

Other Perks

The needs of every Striver are different, so we ensure our benefits support a wide range of community, family and professional well-being.

Retirement and Financial Planning
Strive provides a 401k with an employer match, access to the Best-Interest Advice program and our financial planning tools, Empower and SoFi.

Employee Resource Groups (ERGs)
Strive is dedicated to promoting a sense of community and at work. We currently offer Parents/Guardians/Caregivers, Strive Forward (LGBTQIA+), Underrepresented Minorities, Women & Allies and Veterans’ ERGs.

Mental Health Platforms & Employee Assistance Programs
Strivers have access to Headspace Care through Kaiser, Calm Health through both medical carriers and a full-service Employee Assistance Program.

Family-Forming Support
Strive partners with Maven Maternity through UHC. Strivers enrolled in UHC gain access to Maven’s virtual platform designed to support women’s and family health. Maven provides personalized, on-demand guidance for navigating family-building, pregnancy, postpartum and parenting journeys.

Strivers enrolled in Kaiser will still have access to their Birth-Giving Support Program that includes prenatal care, labor and delivery support, postpartum and newborn care and additional services.

Professional Development
Strive supports growth through annual professional development reimbursements, paid time off for clinical licensure requirements and tuition discounts through CSU Global.

Employee Discounts
Strive offers Fetch for pet insurance since we know that your pets are part of your family. Strivers also enjoy PerkSpot for product discounts such as gyms and daycares near you, electronics, hotels and more. The best part? PerkSpot is customizable to your interests.

"Food for your kidneys shouldn't feel like a punishment. I build a nutrition plan around your lifestyle and help you make small changes that stick, not strict rules that don't fit. I'm here with ongoing encouragement, so you don't have to navigate your health journey alone."

Lyndsey Edwards,

LCSW

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

“I offer a safe space for you, your family and your caregivers to navigate the emotional ups and downs of your health journey. I am here to connect you to community resources that can improve your quality of life. No matter where you are on your journey, you don't have to do it alone." 

Rhonda Washington,

MSN, CRNP

Nurse Practitioner

"You'll always have someone in your corner who knows your full story. I adjust your medications, order labs and coordinate your care across nephrologists, primary care providers and your wider team to catch problems early. When it's time to weigh treatment options, I walk you through each one, so you choose what's right for you." 

Maya

Ready to Take Charge of Her Health

How Strive Helped
Maya's Strive Health team helped her understand her new diagnoses by sharing Spanish-language resources and building a plan for what comes next. She even met with a Strive dietitian who created a personalized nutrition plan. Maya now feels confident and in control of her health.
