What is everyone else seeing? Do they folks who are on the fence will now leave? This is definitely a sign for US employees. Dental and vision no change, but they are small cost. Voluntary life insurance up 70%, using same criteria as 2026.

Why keep working for a company that doesn’t care about you?
Insurance premiums jumped 80% year over.good thing my 2% month raise doesn’t cover a fraction of it.
Another sign of a sinking ship.
My single person high deductible medical ins cost doubled
I don't blame the company. It's a double hit. The Insurance company and the hospital are jumping on the bandwagon to see how much they can actually bleed out of these contracts. The problem is that nobody is stopping the high increase of everything .
@OP here is what i saw:
medical insurance (employee only) $2k deductible up 22.7%
franklin indemnity plans (employee + spouse) no change
dental and vision (employee only) no change
voluntary life up 2.9%
spouse life no change
ad&d (employee plus spouse) up 2.9%
short-term disability up 3%
long-term disability up 2.9%
it is quite amazing how bad the insurance offerings and cost are for a company 'in the field.'
Medical premiums for the family plan with higher deductible and higher Out of Pocket max compared to last year went up almost 80%. So much for that "absorbing millions" comment by HR.
