Just accept that you don’t work at Google and move along. Last I checked you don’t have a chef at work serving free food and afternoon hot cookies with milk either. It was really tough to come back to poverty in consulting. Ya’ll point out one little perk here or there, but it’s not the same. It’s really not.

$100 reimbursement per child for 30 days if we use neighbor, friends to care for our kids ($3000 per kid total)
Charge code if we or our family member are impacted by COVID and can’t work. E.g. no child care. The code won’t impact utilization.
