2025 Plan year
As the costs of healthcare increase, Gitlab strives to offer a competitive benefits program and maintain low costs for Team Members. For 2025, GitLab will continue to cover the majority of costs for your total benefits package.
2025 Open Enrollment
GitLab’s US Benefit Open Enrollment for Calendar Year 2025 will take place from 2024-11-04 through 2024-11-15.

FSA elections do not roll over and you must actively (re)enroll in Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs) and Dependent Care FSAs each year. To enroll in an FSA or make changes, log in to PlanSource between Monday, November 4, and Friday, November 15.

Eligibility
Any active, regular, full-time team member working a minimum of 30 hours per week are eligible for all benefits. Benefits are effective on your date of hire. Others eligible for benefits include:
- Your legal spouse or domestic partner,
- Your dependent children up until age 26 (including legally adopted and stepchildren), and/or
- Any dependent child who reaches the limiting age and is incapable of self-support because of a mental or physical disability
Note: If you and an eligible dependent (as defined above) are both employed by GitLab, you may only be covered by GitLab’s coverage once. This also applies to enrolling in either your own supplemental life insurance or supplemental spouse/dependent life insurance through your dependent who is employed by GitLab, but not both.
A domestic partnership is an arrangement in which two people live together and are in a committed relationship without being legally married. Domestic partnerships are composed of two people of any gender, which includes male, female, or nonbinary people. If you have recently entered in to a Domestic Partnership, or your Domestic Partner goes through a Qualifying Life Event, you may add them to the GitLab plans as outlined in the instructions below. During the documentation step, you will be asked to fill out and submit a Domestic Partner Affidavit in to PlanSource. If you are adding your Domestic Partner during New Hire Enrollment or Open Enrollment, there is no need to fill out the Domestic Partnership Affidavit.

Cigna Provider Search
- Visit myCigna. If you haven’t previously registered for an account, you will want to register.
- Select “Find Care & Costs” at the top of the page.
- Here you can select to search by Doctor Type, Name, Reason for Visit, Facility, or you can price a medication at local pharmacies.
- When you scroll down, there are quick links for your nearest urgent care and telehealth.
Potential joiners who do not have a myCigna account yet can search for providers on the Cigna Website. When selecting a plan everyone at GitLab (PPO, EPO, and HDHP members) will use the OPEN ACCESS PLUS selection, except for Utah members, who will use the PPO option.
Team Members and potential joiners can also reach out to the Cigna One Guide service to check if their doctors are in-network and walk through the GitLab plans with a Cigna rep.
Important Note
As an additional measure to confirm “Contracted Providers” (i.e. In-Network), it’s always a good idea to follow up with Providers directly (phone, email or otherwise) to additionally confirm if a Provider is contracted with Cigna or not and if the type of service is covered. In some instances, the same provider may be covered In-Network for certain types of services, but may be Out-Network for other services. Provider contracts change and sometimes the contracts change faster than the website maintenance teams for the insurance carriers. It’s better to spend time researching and confirming rather than assuming and being stuck with balance billing from Out of Network providers. Balance billing is if the Out of Network provider’s charge is $100 and the carrier’s maximum allowed reimbursement (MAR) amount is $70, the provider is within rights to bill you for the remaining $30. A “Cigna Contracted Provider” cannot balance bill Cigna members.Cigna Virtual Care
Virtual visits for Cigna members can be accessed by visiting myCigna, selecting “Find Care & Costs” and scrolling down to the bottom of the page.

Group Long-Term and Short-Term Disability Insurance
GitLab provides, at no cost to our Inc and Federal team members, a disability policy through NY Life that may replace up to 66.7% of your base salary, for qualifying disabilities. For short-term disability there is a weekly maximum benefit of $2,500; for long-term disability, there is a monthly benefit maximum of $12,500.
Short-term disability insurance has a 7-calendar day waiting period before payments begin. Benefits coverage (medical, dental, vision, etc.) and vesting will continue for the time the team member is receiving short-term disability pay.
See the disability insurance flyer for a summary of the plans.
GitLab Process for Disability Claims
- Team Members unable to work due to disability, as defined by the applicable short-term disability plan, should contact the Absence Management team (leaves@gitlab.com) as soon as possible. See Sick Time reporting procedures in the US.
- The Absence Management team will complete the Employer portion of the Short-Term disability application and email the completed portion along with the Assignment of Benefits form.
- At the end of the maximum benefit period for short-term disability of 12 weeks, the team member will determine whether they are able to return back to work.
- If the team member intends to return on or before the end of the 12 weeks, they should email leaves@gitlab.com a Return to Work authorization form from their physician stating that they are able to return to work and listing any accommodations needed, if applicable, at least 5 calendar days before their return date. The Absence Management team will request this at least 5 business days before the team member’s anticipated return to work date if not already provided by the team member.
- If the team member is unable to return, the team member will be moved to unpaid leave and will have the option to continue their benefits by electing COBRA coverage. The team member will be eligible to apply for long-term disability at this time.
Short-Term Disability Claim Process via NYLife
- Team member will submit the Claimant portion of the Short-Term Disability application and remit to their physician to complete the rest.
- The completed application can be sent directly to NYLife (using the mail or fax number at the top of the form) or can be returned to the Absence Management team and will be submitted on the team member’s behalf.
- This is completely at the preference of the team member or the requirement from the doctor, but the team member should confirm the choice with the Absence Management team.
- If the team member opts to send the form directly to NYLife, the Absence Management team will email the completed employer portion of the Short-Term Disability form to NYLife via email:
GBSIntakePaper@newyorklife.com
. - NYLife Claims Process:
- Within 3 business days of NYLife receiving the claim, their claims team will contact the team member to gather additional medical or eligibility data, if needed.
- The claims team will also contact the Absence Management team to confirm eligibility and verify job responsibilities, if needed.
- The NYLife claims team will immediately begin reviewing the information available to make a decision. NYLife may also contact the team member’s physician (if needed) once NYLife has the team members authorization to do so.
- If the claim is denied, the team member will receive a call from NYLife explaining the decision. The Absence Management team will also receive a notification of the denial and process any pay owed to the team member.
- If approved, communication is sent to the Absence Management team and claim status reports with approval date and estimated return-to-work date is provided.
- The Absence Management team will process the approval or denial and file all related paperwork in Workday.
401(k) Plan
The company offers a 401(k) plan in which you may make voluntary pre-tax contributions toward your retirement.
Administration of 401(k) and Enrollment
- You are eligible to participate in GitLab’s 401(k) as of your hire date. There is no auto-enrollment. You must actively elect your deductions.
- You will receive an invitation to register for access to your account on Fidelity NetBenefits who is GitLab’s plan recordkeeper.
- Any changes to your plan information will be effective within 2 payroll cycles (typically updated within 1 payroll cycle, depending on when the change is made and cut-off changes dates).
- Once inside the platform you may elect your annual/pay-period contributions and investments.
- If you have any questions about making changes to your elections, we recommend that you reach out to Fidelity directly, by chat in the app, or by phone at 800-835-5097.
- Please review the Summary Plan Document, QDIA, Fee Disclosure. If you have any questions about the plan or the documents, please reach out to HelpLab. Total Rewards is not able to advise you on your financial decisions.
- ADP payroll system monitors and will stop the 401(k) contribution when you have reached the IRS limit for the year. Please keep in mind, if you have prior contributions from another employer, ADP will not have access to this information.
- If your employment with GitLab terminates and you are unable to access your Fidelity account due to this being connected to your GitLab email, please contact Fidelity at 800-835-5097 to have the email address on file updated.
401(k) Match
GitLab offers matching 50% of contributions on the first 6% of allocated gross earnings per pay period with a yearly cap of $1,500 USD. If a hypothetical team member’s salary is $50,000 USD, their gross pay per period is $50,000 / 24 = $2083.33. This is then matched at a rate of $2083.33 * 6% * 50% = $62.50.
Employer match contributions will automatically vest when received.
As you are eligible to participate in GitLab’s 401(k) as of your hire date, you are also eligible for GitLab matching contributions as of your hire date.
All employer contributions are pre-tax contributions. Team members can still make Roth 401(k) team member contributions and receive pre-tax employer contributions to your Traditional 401(k) account.
Administration of 401(k) Match
- The employer will use the calculation on each check date effective as of January 1.
- The team member must have a contribution for a check date to be eligible for the employer match.
- Employer matching will be released into participant accounts three business days after the check date.
- For team members who defer more than 6% on each check date, an annual true-up will be conducted after calendar year end.
- The 401(k) match runs calendar year.
401(k) Plan Features

Wex Contact: 866-451-3399; customerservice@wexhealth.com; www.wexinc.com
Health Savings Account (HSA)
GitLab contributes $100 per month for those enrolled in the HSA under Individual cover, and $125 per month under team member + dependent(s) cover. You must be enrolled in the HDHP plan in order to contribute to the HSA.
HSA Details
Your HSA account allows you to set aside money on a pre-tax basis to pay for qualified medical expenses. By using untaxed dollars in an HSA to pay for deductibles, copayments, coinsurance, and some other expenses, you may be able to lower your out-of-pocket health care costs. Some benefits of on HSA account are:
Your HSA contributions go into your account before taxes. The money you save to your HSA lowers your taxable income – so you may pay less in taxes. Money in your HSA account earns tax-free interest. Any unused HSA funds roll over to the next year. The money is yours forever. It doesn’t expire. You can spend your HSA dollars on eligible health care expenses, or save and invest them for the future. Once your HSA account hits a certain balance, you can invest a portion of your HSA balance in mutual funds, stocks and bonds. You can use your HSA to save for retirement. At age 65, you can use the funds for any purpose without a penalty. The money you take out to pay for eligible health care expenses continues to be tax free. You also can take money out for other reasons without paying a penalty.
HSA Account Rollover & Administration
If you would like to transfer your HSA from a previous account, please contact WEX (Discovery) and request a HSA Transfer funds form. On the form you will put your old HSA provider’s account number and any other required personal information. You will then submit the form to WEX (Discovery), and they will get in contact with your old HSA provider and process the transfer of funds. You can reach WEX (Discovery) at 866.451.3399 or customerservice@discoverybenefits.com
.
HSAs roll over completely year-to-year and are ‘owned’ by the team member. If you leave GitLab and would like to keep your HSA account, GitLab will no longer be responsible for the administration fee. The account holder will become responsible for the per month admin fee.
Domestic Partner Reimbursements: If the team member is not legally married to their domestic partner, the domestic partner’s expenses are not eligible for disbursement from the HSA. However, if the domestic partner is covered under the family HDHP through the team member, the domestic partner can open their own HSA and contribute up to the full family contribution maximum. The team member may also contribute up to the full family contribution maximum to their own HSA.
Mid-Year HSA Contribution Change
Team Members can make changes to their HSA contribution throughout the year. Any changes will be reflected as of the 1st of the following month. You can make these changes via the Qualifying Life Event Process. Select “Mid-Year HSA Contribution” under event type.
You can also choose to front-load the team member portion of your HSA contributions directly with Wex. Please contact Wex to assist you with this request. If you do choose to front-load your HSA, please be sure to take into account GitLab’s contribution amount to your front-load calculation, and adjust your HSA deductions in PlanSource to update payroll deductions. GitLab is unable to track your maximum contribution if you fund the HSA outside of your payroll deductions.
Health Savings Account and Offboarding GitLab
Your Health Savings Account and any funds within the account as of your date of termination are yours to keep. You may continue to use the dollars in your account for eligible healthcare expenses at your next employer, and/or allow the money to remain in the account and grow over time. Wex may charge fees to manage your HSA account directly. Please contact WEX (Discovery) at 866.451.3399, via live chat or customerservice@discoverybenefits.com with any questions about your HSA accounts.
Flexible Spending Account (FSA) Plans
FSAs help you pay for eligible out-of-pocket health care and dependent day care expenses on a pretax basis. You determine your projected expenses for the Plan Year and then elect to set aside a portion of each paycheck into your FSA. FSA contributions can only be updated during open enrollment or through a qualifying life event (QLE).
There are three types of FSAs that team members may enroll in:
- Medical FSA: Lets you pay for all eligible medical expenses, including dental and vision expenses, as well as over-the-counter medications. Team Members who have an HSA cannot participate in a medical FSA.
- Dependent Care FSA: restrict eligible expenses to dependent care expenses exclusively. A qualifying ‘dependent’ may be a child under age 13, a disabled spouse, or an older parent in eldercare.
- Limited Purpose FSA: restrict eligible expenses to dental and vision expenses exclusively. Team members with an HSA can participate in a limited purpose FSA.
Per WEX Health, FSA rollover funds are not available for 2024 expenses until 5-15 business days after 2024-03-31 (should be no later than 2024-04-22).
In 2024 the maximum salary deferral contribution has increased to $3,200 USD, with the maximum rollover amount increasing to $640 USD.
In 2025 the maximum salary deferral contribution has increased to $3,300 USD, with the maximum rollover amount increasing to $660 USD.
A minimum amount of $5 USD will apply to the rollover. Note if the FSA rollover funds are $5 or less, the funds will be forfeited. Team members can use the roll-over FSA amount the following year regardless if they enroll in the FSA the following year.
Flexible Spending Accounts and Leaving GitLab
FSAs are employer-owned accounts. If you leave GitLab Medical FSA account will be terminated on your date of termination unless you continue this through COBRA. You are able to use your full FSA amounts up to and on your last day, but not afterwards unless you enroll into COBRA. WEX (Discovery) requires that all claims be submitted up to 90 days after termination date. You can enroll into COBRA FSA if you have spent less out of your account than you have contributed to it. If you decide to enroll, you will be required to continue making your monthly contributions on a post-tax status. For additional information, please reach out to WEX (Discovery) at 866.451.3399 or customerservice@discoverybenefits.com.
Dependent Care FSAs cannot be continued via COBRA. You are able to use your dependent care FSA for expenses that occur up to your last day, but not afterwards. Wex requires that all claims be submitted up to 90 days after termination date. For additional information, please reach out to WEX (Discovery) at 866.451.3399 or customerservice@discoverybenefits.com.
FSA Period to Submit Claims

Mid-Year FSA Contribution Changes
Team Members can only make changes to their FSA contributions during a Qualifying Life Event. You cannot reduce your FSA contributions, you can only increase the FSA during the Qualifying Life Event.
Note that if you increase the amount of your FSA, you will only be able to use the additional funds for claims that incur on or after your Qualifying Life Event. See Example Below:
Scenario | Resolution | Example |
---|---|---|
A participant gets married | The participant can only increase their election amount. | A participant originally elected $500. They get married and update their election amount to $2,000 as of the date of the qualifying life event. Note: The participant can only be reimbursed up to $500 for claims with dates of service between the plan effective date and the date of the qualifying life event. |

If you elect supplemental life insurance greater than the guaranteed issue of voluntary life insurance for yourself or dependent, you or your dependent may be required to complete an evidence of insurability (EOI). If required, you will be prompted and provided with the form during the enrollment process and can also access it here.
Please complete this form to the best of your ability, but if you’re unsure for any field, please leave it blank. No information needs to be filled out for the ID # field and for security, you may also leave the Social Security Number field blank.
Once complete, please send the form to total-rewards@gitlab.com
. The Total Rewards team will then help fill in any missing information, if applicable, and will forward to the carrier for review. Total Rewards will confirm receipt of the EOI with the carrier, track its status, and the team or the carrier will reach out to the team member with any issues that need to be addressed in order for the EOI to be approved.
If you leave GitLab, all supplemental life insurance is not included in COBRA and will terminate on your last day at GitLab unless you choose to continue your or your spouse/children’s life insurance directly with the carrier. Please contact the carrier (Cigna) for more information on premiums and setting this up.
