• A night shift allowance, since the role operates on a 6:30 PM to 3:30 AM IST shift to align with US business hours
• A monthly work-from-home allowance, along with support for home office setup

Candidates should confirm the exact fixed CTC directly with the recruiter during the hiring process, since Better does not publish salary figures on the listing itself.
