We're sad to hear that this is your impression of Helcim and we recognize the unique aspects of our culture including high impact work and the challenges that come with fast-growing organizations are not a fit for everyone. Startups and companies like Helcim are not for everyone so we do encourage spending the time upfront to understand the work environment which we're also happy to candidly share with anyone interviewing with us. This can save you a lot of time, and help you make the best career decision for you. Working at Helcim requires passionate people who are excited about our journey and who are willing to put in the work to build something special and you'll see this in other Glassdoor reviews. These reviews are far more reflective of what it's like to be a team member. We hope to attract people who share our core values, are excited to shake up the payments industry, and are full of passion, integrity, and talent. We wish you the best in your career and your next endeavor.

The culture of the company still feels surreal to me every day that I come into work. You have to meet a certain "vibe check" to get to work alongside the amazing people here. So completely different from the corporate banking world I have been in my entire adult life prior to this. The transparency during the hiring process about the reality of working for a startup company was very much appreciated as well. They didn't sugar coat anything - and want you to be able to succeed, if you're up for the challenge!

Minpunten

What I wish I knew before I started, is that the benefit package isn't the best. While I am very grateful that it begins immediately upon starting employment - the annual maximum for prescriptions isn't very high. I have a type 1 diabetic son, so we will max out his annual allotment after a few months.

Thank you for sharing your experience and for highlighting this important concern. We truly appreciate the feedback. We’re glad to hear that the immediate access to benefits has been valuable, but we understand that coverage limits, especially for ongoing or high-cost needs can be challenging. Supporting the health and well-being of employees and their dependents is something we take seriously. While our current plan has set maximums, there are often additional options available. We encourage you to connect directly with our P&C team, who can help explore solutions tailored to your situation. This may include coordinating with a spouse’s plan, looking into manufacturer assistance programs, or accessing supplemental or provincial drug programs available in Alberta. We are always committed to working with our team to find the best possible support and encourage anyone with concerns to reach out so we can help navigate these options together.
