One of my favorite perks at salesforce is that we get 56 hours a year of volunteer time off (and really good donation matching). What other companies have something similar?

We match up to 10,000 in donations and I think we give 2 days of volunteer time

Nice! I think you match double what we do ($5,000). Though I think we increased it during COVID.

We get 5 days Time2Give, during covid it was increased to 10 days to volunteer. There’s also a donation match for eligible charities, but don’t know the limit.

That's really good too, I like these kind of perks - I don't really have that at my current job but something to suggest

Black Baud, which sells primarily into the non-profit space, employees can an hour of additional PTO for every two hours of volunteer time. They also have a donation matching program and a grant program where employees can nominate charitable organizations for company donations.

like

That's a pretty cool concept. Because people can't take advantage of the PTO unless they're willing to commit to the volunteer hours.

In my former life I worked with REI (the outdoor rec company) and they give good volunteer time off also. I wish more tech companies did this.

like

Years ago, when I worked at Bank of America, they offered 5 paid days of volunteer time. I wish I'd have taken more advantage of it back then.

I know this has been discussed but can’t find exactly what I’m after... How much is too much money to negotiate? Negotiate for more money and more PTO or just one. Both are low, especially the PTO
