If you have student loan debt, you may be able to get help paying it down through your employer — or find one that does.

More than 44 million Americans are weighed down by student debt, owing a collective $1.7 trillion.

Now as the “Great Resignation” gains steam and workers look for new jobs, employers are trying to find ways to attract and retain talent. Working remotely and offering help with those loans are some of the perks. (See a list below of companies with these benefits that are hiring now.)

Federal student loan payments, most of which were paused during the pandemic, are set to resume in January.

“It is important for employers to meet employees where they are and find benefits that will be meaningful and provide value to them,” said Toni Frana, a Destin, Florida-based career coach with FlexJobs.

Currently, 17% of employers offer student loan debt assistance and another 31% plan to offer it, according to the Employee Benefit Research Institute’s 2021 Employer Financial Wellbeing Survey.

About 70% of employers said employee engagement in the benefit has increased since 2020.

Meanwhile, many Americans want to continue working remotely instead of going back to the office. A Prudential survey this spring found a whopping 87% want the ability to continue to work from home.

Here are eight companies that are helping employees pay down student loan debt and also offer work-from-home positions, according to FlexJobs. The average annual base salary is courtesy of Payscale, unless otherwise noted in the job posting.

Employees of this health-care research company based in Abbott Park, Illinois, can divert the 2% minimum contribution they would normally have to make to their 401(k) plans to get the 5% match to instead pay off their student loans. The employee still gets the 5% contribution in their 401(k).
