In June, $3.2 billion health insurance startup Oscar Health moved into its new headquarters.
The office, located on the fifth floor at 75 Varick Street, is filled with nearly 600 of Oscar’s more than 1,000 employees, including engineers, marketing teams, and the company’s leadership. The space roughly doubles the footprint of Oscar’s last headquarters in the Puck Building in New York’s SoHo neighborhood.
