Rewards & Benefits

Benefits of working at VBR

We value all of our colleagues at Vacations By Rail and believe that your wellbeing plays an important role in creating an appealing and respectful working environment.

As such, we have created an attractive offering of social and employment benefits to ensure everyone enjoys their career at VBR and feels supported throughout.

Team Spirit

We are not a hierarchical company and understand the importance of being 'one team'. Our CEO, Dave, and Senior Vice President, Liz, host regular Town Hall meetings to update us on the company's progress and what's coming up.

Each month, free lunch is provided from a local eatery, from pizzas and burgers to Japanese and Korean food. People are also encouraged to arrange events for colleagues, so you could join some colleagues at a baseball or basketball game if sports is your thing.

Our employment benefits

From Paid Time Off and 401(k) to parental leave and subsidized medical, dental and vision insurance, we believe our benefits offer reflects the importance we place on wellbeing and valuing our colleagues.

Paid Time Off

All colleagues receive 21 days PTO each year, plus 8 paid public holidays. If you work on any of our recognized public holidays, you'll receive a day in lieu.

401(k)

For full-time colleagues, we offer a 401(k) plan and will match colleague contributions up to 4%.

Medical, Dental and Vision Insurance

We offer subsidized medical, dental and vision insurance for colleagues who regularly work more than 30 hours per week. There's also the option to add cover for your dependents, spouse or family at your own cost.

Parental Leave

We are committed to supporting new parents. All colleagues who've been with us for a year or more are eligible for our parental leave in cases of birth, adoption or foster-care placement.

Refer-a-Friend Scheme

Colleagues can receive an incentive payment when recommending a friend to work with us at VBR. This will be paid once the new starter has successfully completed their probation period.

VBR Tour Discounts

We like to encourage our colleagues to experience and enjoy the products that we offer. Once you've completed your probation period, you can benefit from a discounted rate on our tours. You may also be invited to join one of our tours on a familiarization trip, to further product knowledge and get a feel for the customer experience.

CTA/RTA transit cards

For colleagues based in Illinois, CTA/RTA transit cards can be bought through VBR, meaning you benefit from purchasing them on a pre-tax basis.

IATA card

You can request an IATA card, which offers a wide variety of discounts on hotels, travel, restaurants, entertainment and more.
