I’m doing some research on how we can better recognize/reward employees who are going above and beyond. What are ways, big and small, that your agencies celebrate people who are crushing it?

I like your question. Free coffee almost feels insulting. I like the idea of tax free money or gifts that employees actually get to choose. How about extra vacation? Lyft gift cards? Public recognition?

One of my old team leads used to gift “experiences” to circumvent employee taxes for spot bonuses and gifts. He’d allow a nice dinner up to (predetermined amount), or a (pre-approved by him) experience, to be expensed to the practice. It generally was for between $500-1000 and happened 1-2X a year, and was really well received.

Alternatively, on a small scale, my manager used to text me one day a week in the morning announcing it was “free coffee friday!” (Or thurs, or whichever). It was very consistent and very thoughtful, and made me feel really appreciated and like we were in it together

Have any of you taken "low bono" clients while working at a firm? I want to take on a low bono client or two but not sure who would get the money. This is a contract opportunity through a non profit so I'm assuming a 1099 will be issued. The per hour rate is significantly less than my billable rate. I would (obviously) like the money but my real objective is just getting experience/networking since I recently moved to a new state and don't have clients of my own.

I joined pwc last month, and absolutely hating it here. Each weekend has been working, 12-15 hours work day is minimum expectation.

(Note that you request them to review and give their pov earlier on, but they never take the time out)

I'll start - How much do benefits factor into your job search and deciding on an offer? For me, the vacation is critical, and it reflects the extent of the agency's culture of trust.
