The startup I currently work for has (IMO) a reasonable number of benefits
- weekly lunch
- get drunk on the company a handful of times a year
- dogfooding our product for free
- certs + professional development
A company offering substantially less than that I’d consider stingy or too up tight. Not appreciative of the workers. Look at low margin industries like the warehouse.
A company offering more, Id feel good about.
A company offering bean bags, video games, excessive alcohol, I’d definitely feel suspicious about. Who are you trying to buy with these trinkets?
