Work Hard. Have Fun.
Here at JSA, our focus is always on our customers, but also and equally importantly, our staff. Our employees are the lifeblood of our company, and their hard work, determination and professionalism has elevated JSA to where it is today. Everyone at JSA is considered family and as such we work through the good and bad to provide all our customers with top-tier service.
Why working at JSA is Just Simply Awesome
Enhance the Employee Experience
JSA strives to provide some of the best benefits around to both in-office and remote/satellite staff. Amenities include an in-house gym and zen/meditation rooms, monthly wellness initiatives that reward participants with treats, gift cards and even additional time off. Other benefits include flexible appointment time and even pet bereavement. We also celebrate birthdays, work anniversaries and other employee celebrations such as weddings and childbirths. More often than not, you spend more time with your work family than your actual family, and we want to foster the idea that every employee is valued and matters, regardless of position or title.
Our Culture
Company culture is vital to not only attracting potential new hires, but it’s also important when it comes to retaining key talent. At JSA, we seek to provide a work environment that is positive and relaxed while also encouraging a strong work ethic and working as a team. Social events are a common occurrence, including our annual Cornhole tournament and end-of-year Christmas party. We encourage participation in all forms of social events but also understand everyone is different. Our philosophy is that each employee plays their part in the greater JSA family
Philanthropy
Charity and philanthropic outreach is a big part of how we connect with our local community. JSA selects between 3-4 local organizations every year; funds raised from JSA-sponsored events across the year are matched 100% and then split among those groups at the end of the year. As a privately-owned, family-oriented company, we feel our connection to those who have supported us along the way in our journey is paramount.
Professional Development & Training
Employee growth and development, from both a professional and personal standpoint, are top-of-mind when it comes to our staff. We love growing talent internally and place a premium on finding people that are a good culture fit and want to grow as JSA grows. Licensing, designations, and continuing education are a variety of ways we encourage employees to better themselves and their careers at JSA.
What our employees say
Dylan
My favorite part of working here is being a part of team JSA and the family environment. There isn’t a disconnect between departments and it’s really encouraging to know that your team has your back.
Justin
The people I get to work with are some of the most talented individuals I know. I am also given the time to grow in a place where it’s okay to make mistakes.
Alexandra
I really like the work-life balance, and when I go home I know I can leave work at work, mainly because of the work culture and how it compares to my last job. I am confident in my duties, feel sufficiently trained, and know that I am doing a good job. My expectations are very clear so I appreciate that a lot.
