Impactful Benefit For Our Employees **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Education Management | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 30, 2019 **What do you like best about Spring?** So many people struggle with financial stress. In schools, where compensation is already constrained and the talent market is declining, this problem is exacerbated. To help with this, we've offered Holberg Financial as a free perk for all 1,400 employees at Noble for the past couple of years after a successful pilot a few years ago. Not only has the feedback around people's experience with the company been overwhelmingly positive but the average employee who took advantage of the resource saw hundreds of dollars in personal savings and/or gain. The more our educators feel empowered and in control of their finances the more likely it is they'll be able to stay in a role they love longer and be their best selves for our students each day. **What do you dislike about Spring?** We've not had much to dislike. I'd like to see the dashboards and data-reporting continue to evolve for the employer side. It's not a particularly game-changing perk on the talent-recruitment front end like "free lunch" which is too bad because I think it's of more value-add in terms of both costs to the employer and benefit to the employee. **Recommendations to others considering Spring:** Ensure that there are no commissions involved. Critical to us was that Holberg received no financial incentives for any advice they gave to our employees as sooo many financial advisors do. **What problems is Spring solving and how is that benefiting you?** We've not been able to quantify the impact on retention but know for the employees who've had financial stress (credit card debt as a key example) it's changed their happiness including how to make their current pay work with their personal needs/wants. For the HR team, this has really helped them point employees to a resource for investment, tax, financial, or other advice they aren't able to provide in-house and EAP isn't strong enough at. ### 20. Extremely helpful for saving money **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Education Management | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 21, 2019 **What do you like best about Spring?** Holberg Financial reviewed all our of life insurance policies and helped us identify the ones we truly needed, and which were unnecessary. The review of our policies was done efficiently and quickly to help us save a substantial amount of money. **What do you dislike about Spring?** There wasn't anything we disliked. The website is easy to navigate and emails/phone calls are returned quickly. **Recommendations to others considering Spring:** I hope others realize how efficient this company is. The website is easy to use, and it's easy to get in touch with someone. Holberg Financial can help address personal issues on finance and other personal matters. **What problems is Spring solving and how is that benefiting you?** We were over insured without knowing it, and over paying for insurance policies we didn't need. Holberg Financial helped us identify the necessary policies to save us money to help us reconfigure our budget and put this money other places to help alleviate debt. ### 21.
