We are always looking for ways to improve the lives of small business owners and families.

Not only in the community, but part of a community

At NI, we offer paid time off for holidays, personal time, sick time and vacation. We believe time away to rest and rejuvenate is important. Benefits include medical, dental and vision insurance for you and your family, life and long-term disability insurance, and short term disability.  We are always looking for benefits that are affordable and valuable to our team. In 2020, we started offering cybersecurity coverage for employees, and the option of emergency medical transportation coverage.

NI encourages volunteerism for community benefit. It’s part of our mission to improve where we live and work every way we can!
