Human Interest is founded on a simple idea: Affordable, zero-transaction fee, 401(k) plans for small and medium businesses. Businesses that, historically, never had access to these types of investment and tax-benefit retirement vehicles. Here are the big things weve done to shake up the retirement industry: 1. We eliminated all 401(k) transaction fees for companies and their employees. 2. We made it so easy to start saving that we see 2x the average industry participation rate. 3. We helped thousands of customers open their company’s first 401(k) plan and start saving. 4. We built end-to-end technology to solve administrative and compliance headaches for small and medium-sized businesses. Human Interest is leveling the playing field on retirement by making employer and employee retirement savings more intuitive, more affordable, and more inclusive. Human Interest is an affordable, full-service 401(k) and 403(b) provider that seeks to make it easy for small and medium-sized businesses to assist their employees with investing for retirement.

We are Uber. The go-getters. The kind of people who are relentless about our mission to help people go anywhere and get anything and earn their way. Movement is what we power. It’s our lifeblood. It runs through our veins. It’s what gets us out of bed each morning. It pushes us to constantly reimagine how we can move better. For you. For all the places you want to go. For all the things you want to get. For all the ways you want to earn. Across the entire world. In real time. At the incredible speed of now. The idea for Uber was born on a snowy night in Paris in 2008, and ever since then our DNA of reimagination and reinvention carries on. We’ve grown into a global platform powering flexible earnings and the movement of people and things in ever expanding ways. We’ve gone from connecting rides on 4 wheels to 2 wheels to 18-wheel freight deliveries. From takeout meals to daily essentials to prescription drugs to just about anything you need at any time and earning your way. From drivers with background checks to real-time verification, safety is a top priority every single day. At Uber, the pursuit of reimagination is never finished, never stops, and is always just beginning.
