We used to have a lot of perks in the past few years. They started cutting the perks every year, and now all we have is internet coverage. I suspect that this trend may affect our yearly bonus.

Only for phone. Definitely seems to be the way things are trending.

All at home workers just lost a $30/ month home internet reimbursement. Logic is we all have internet and because we are given a company phone. (I wouldn't be paying for 2 gig service if it wasn't for 3 additional devices on my home network for work and my work cell service is terrible by at home. Its only 30 bucks but still, the company pays for internet at the office.

I never got anything for at home nor for my personal phone use, which is part of why I do my best to not answer things that aren’t via teams or outlook. We do get gym but only up to a certain amount which is 2-3 months of a membership or maybe a 10 pack of classes.

Companies are tightening their belts, and unfortunately, perks are often the first to go. We stopped getting internet and phone coverage early this year.

Cable? As in Internet or do you sneak in the NFL package in that reimbursement receipt
