Employee benefits surveys are questionnaires sent to employees to gauge which benefits are most important to employees. They ask questions about the quality of specific benefits, how they compare to other companies, and any additional benefits employees would like to see in the future.
This can relate to PTO, health insurance, parental leave, retirement, stock options, free meals, etc.
Length: Between 25-30 questions
Frequency: Bi-annual or annual
