This does prompt a conversation about firm money saved on operating costs that each employee assumes working from home. These are now bills increasing that once would not have been. Though we do save in gas and mileage for the commute.

Yup. My full Internet bill is covered by not commuting just four days out of any month, and that doesn’t include savings from any lunches I don’t buy that I otherwise would when I go to my office.

You know they’ll just deduct $250 from your raise/bonus this year, right? Deloitte pulled the same move with a $500 WFH subsidy right before our updated pay statements to try and placate people. Needless to say, it did not work.

PwC is way too late. Other companies have already provided one time cash or furniture or allowed employees to expense off ... It’s more like reimbursement for the items that we have already purchased to support WFH.

Accenture gave us nothing! Unless you had dependents. They did reimburse $100 a day for care when most daycares were closed for a few months.

Julie, we need WFH reimbursements!

I work at a boutique we had $300 per year previously pre-COVID that's now increased to $500 per year for the foresseable. It really does help.

They even gave suggestions like getting airpods, monitors, standing desks etc.

I really do value the consideration behind this, it's minor in the grand scheme of things, but any firm that does this deserves credit, it's quickly becoming the norm it looks like.
