Whether it’s a paid day off to volunteer or the freedom to work from home, employees at two Malvern workplaces enjoy office benefits that rival the “cool factor” of trendsetter Google.

Investment leader Vanguard and education management software maker Frontline Education both made an elite list of 19 companies with enviable work environments — “offering everything from brag-worthy perks to the chance to work on innovative products,” according to a report in The Muse by Kat Boogaard.

Vanguard’s trademark is giving back through abundant community service options, that annual paid day to volunteer, and automatic payroll donations to organizations that employees can choose.

Meanwhile, Frontline Education models a true family-first commitment that provides incredible flexibility for scheduling work time and even place — employees can work remotely.
