PwC2. Review our Finance Policies. It's up to your engagement partner if he wants to pass on the expenses to the client, use his PD code, or eat it out of profits. Be sure to cite the policy, however, many Partners are unaware of the policy.
I had one partner refuse to pay for it, regardless of the policy. Pick your battles. Don't piss anyone off over it. But generally citing the policy and saying the hotel gym isn't enough, is sufficient.
@D3 my x-box was 50% covered like everything else in the policy.
Curious to this as well. Anybody from Accenture know?
Oh yeah. Went up to 20 last summer. And I am only talking about classes. My gym membership is 65. But I also do the occasional Bikram yoga, kickboxing, or spin class. Honestly I have never personally had a problem or known anyone else to have a problem with expensing fitness while traveling. I have seen plenty of people get nastygrams for charging non approved expenses to the fitness subsidy. Mostly people buying running shoes.
@D2 & D6 $20 per day for travel is so good.. I'm jealous...
Some gyms also have corporate discounts - I worked at Equinox in college and I believe EY was the only Big 4 without a discount
Ah I see. As someone who did a two week trial at Gold's in LA... Equinox or a more pricey alternative is well worth the money. The location I went to by EY was full of 50 year old creeps that would stare at you like a piece of meat. Would always be out of towels, smelled bad, locker rooms seemed unclean, etc. Group classes also weren't up to par and the machines were always taken. Anyways, I obviously didn't sign the contract. Got a membership at CorePower Yoga - they have 200 locations across the country that you can use with no extra charge so it's perfect for a consultant. If you sign up when a new one is opening, your membership will be super discounted (I think mine is $115/month). I recommend their heated sculpt class - it will change your life!
@D's You guys are silly. As long as you submit the expense under $75, you can call it whatever you want since receipts are not required.
D4 word. I miss Deloitte
@acn1 that part is a bitch. At our tax rates it really only nets out to a 30% discount.
Can I expense a PS4 if it comes with a fitness thingy?
@D5 I don't know the PS4 specs, but the fitness function has to be a part of any device. It can't be detachable.
I have a friend on intl project and she somehow expenses a trainer once a week...
If only the equinox discount made it close to reasonably affordable. If I had no gym at all maybe, but I've got one at my apartment, so only need something when I'm onsite as an option to get my 3rd day in.
I'm a sucker for classes @ACN2 so my apartment gym does not suffice. If I recall correctly though, Accenture actually had the best discount. Something ridiculous like $116 a month vs $150-60 a month for PwC
I haven't seen any Accenture gym discounts. Can anyone confirm?
There's some awful Accenture.athleticmindedtraveler.com website that sucks as far as I can tell. We do have a Equinox discount but that's the only one im aware of
Yeah Equinox is the only one I know of but that's still $100+/mo. I wish they had some sort of discount for LA Fitness or golds or something more affordable.
How much is Equinox with our discount?
I just need a squat and bench rack :(
Are massages reimbursable at Deloitte using the $500?
