Perks A-PLENTY!
What would a company be without a few collectables to make the game a little more interesting?
POWER UPS!
HEALTH
Entelect have partnered with Discovery Health as our preferred medical aid scheme, and as such, have a dedicated account manager that can help our people when the need arises in dealing with Discovery. Being a part of the Entelect Discovery group scheme means that new members wishing to join Discovery have the waiting period waived and billing occurs in arrears instead of up front. Entelect also takes care of paying the premiums directly out of people’s salaries.
FINANCE
Our value of growth holds true when it comes to our people’s future financial planning. How much growth though, is always a choice. Entelect’s mandatory Provident Fund scheme gives our people options on how much they want to save, how aggressively they want to invest and provides added benefits such as Life, Funeral and Disability cover at preferential rates.
INSURANCE
Entelect has an optional Vehicle Insurance scheme that provides our people with highly competitive vehicle insurance premiums. Best of all, being a young company, we know that the youth are often taken advantage of when it comes to their vehicle insurance premiums, and our insurance provider understands that, too. Being a part of the scheme means shared risk, resulting in generally lower premiums. Because of the long and close relationship between our two companies, our brokers really go out of their way to look after our people when dealing with claims.
JUMP BOOSTS
GOLD COIN 1
YOU GET A BONUS, YOU GET A BONUS, AND YOU GET A BONUS!
Everybody in the company is guaranteed to get at least 1 bonus equal to their salary, paid out Ke’Dezemba boss! In your first year with us, that bonus is prorated to the amount of time you have been with us. But there is more. We have been known to give bonus bonuses based on our collective success.

WAIT, WUT? INCREASES TWICE A YEAR?
Yes, you read that right. Entelect conducts bi-annual performance reviews along with continuous feedback throughout the year which means we give people 2x increases every year (January & July). We are committed to rewarding performance, quickly.
GOLD COIN 3
BE LOYAL TO YOURSELF
As a way of encouraging each person to look after their holistic wellbeing, people loyal to us earn Loyalty Leave over and above Annual Leave. It’s more time to do what you want to do, recharge and refresh when you want to, or need to! It presents a unique opportunity for individuals to take the time away from their workspace to focus on hobbies, travel, spend time with loved ones, and so much more. The longer you are with us, the more leave you get.
GOLD COIN 4
INVITE OTHERS TO THE PARTY
Know people that are technically sound, like-minded, passionate and will fit right in with our culture? Well then you will be in the driving seat of adding additional earnings to your salary with our unique referral incentive programme. Some upfront cash and then a monthly boost to your salary; everyone walks away from the party with a balloon!
GOLD COIN 5
KUDOS
Kudos are themed achievements that are awarded by peers for Entelectuals that deliver, inspire, promote, and manifest our values in the workplace. Every month, people who have exemplified a value are awarded prizes and their story is shared with all. It’s how we recognise awesomeness, so go forth and be awesome!
GOLD COIN 6
ENTELECT REWARDS
When it comes to people incentives, Entelectuals get rewarded through our Entelect Rewards Programme. Entelectuals earn points for living Entelect’s values, delivering exceptional results, promoting their own individual brands, and giving back to the community. These points can be redeemed for things like software licenses, gaming vouchers, investment options, shopping vouchers, and even Uber rides.

FEELING A SNACK ATTACK COME ON? THERE IS A CARE PACK FOR THAT!
We know that engineers need fuel during their day to produce great code, so all of our teams have access to free snacks and cold drinks in the form of care packs, delivered right to your desks!
GOLD COIN 8
TEAM LUNCH ON US!
Relationships are important to us and taking time out with your team forges fellowship in a relaxed and chilled environment. So, every month, we also give our teams a little extra time away from the office for a lunch, on us! You can choose where and when you want to go.
GOLD COIN 9
IF PEOPLE AREN’T HAVING FUN, THEY SELDOM PRODUCE GOOD WORK!
Whilst each team has a slightly different flavour when it comes to having fun (which we encourage!), there is always a bunch of things on the go across all our hubs. Stocked fridges with refreshments, healthy and treat food stations, and all the coffee you could ever need. Socials are the norm and our year-end parties are famous! Our vibe is mi casa e su casa, make yourself at home while hanging out with your colleagues.
GOLD COIN 10
COMING FROM LANDS FAR AND WIDE?
For those living in Pretoria and commuting to Johannesburg, we offer a travel benefit in the form of a Gautrain allowance, reducing travel costs and buying them that all-important time away from traffic.
GOLD COIN 11
FUEL TO GET YOU GOING!
No, this is not food – that we already covered! For those that don’t commute and don’t use the Gautrain, we have a loyalty benefit in the form of a petrol card to help you on your way. Spend 2 years with us in order to qualify for this and save more on your travel costs as you continue your journey to Become More!

TECH ACCELERATOR PROGRAMME
For those with innovative aspirations, our Tech Accelerator Programme is a great way to explore those aspirations and ideas. We allocate time, budget, and face-to-face time with our Tech Leads during the year towards your idea, and best of all, the IP of the project remains yours.

WE care
As Entelectuals, we are constantly looking for challenges and greater problems to solve. It’s what drives us, and the challenges of our busy lives should not stop us from reaching our true potential. At Entelect, we have our We Care Programme that provides valuable support to protect our people’s well-being and to support our people in coping with problems they may encounter at work or at home. All our people are holistic individuals and are granted open access to all services, free of charge (on us, mahala).
Our services range from partnering with a digitally enabled, comprehensive Employee Assistance Programme, to working closely with a selected, high-touch network of medical professionals, to highly experienced training providers and an internal team of passionate industrial psychologists and leaders who facilitate it all on your behalf.
This is a handy programme designed to provide Counselling, Trauma Support, Physical Motivation and Financial Advice for our people, to name a few.
BELOW IS A LIST OF SOME OF THE SERVICES WHICH ARE COVERED BY WE CARE:
- Counselling and emotional support arranged as either telephonic or face-to-face sessions
- Comprehensive trauma response in both individual, couple, and group sessions
- Physical motivation and health drives to keep you fit and active when you’re away (or even sitting) at your desks
- Financial advice to aim for your financial goals, assist with personal debt management, tax advice and more
- Leadership support and training
