Our company is not interested in competing with large firms; our goal is to provide a top tier client experience from start to finish of a project. We are not just looking to fill a role, we are looking to invite a new member into our family.

The employee benefits package at Magellan rival’s those of other firms that staff 200-300 people, such as 2 weeks PTO beginning on your first day, fully paid medical insurance, 401K with company match, and the fan-favorite; flex time.
