You get pizza and bad Chinese food for dinner when you have to stay past 8pm every night and on most weekends. Top that, w+k.

When we switched over to Accenture, overall benefits—insurance, 401k, travel perks—got a lot better. For example, you pick your insurance carrier and it’s a bit cheaper than before, have the option of 401k and other investing help, greater matching of 401k, and get significant discounts at every hotel chain, rental cars, retail, etc.

However, we lost a lot of days we used to have off, and have to deal with systems/operations bullshit.

It’s give and take, but overall benefits—non work-output-related—are probably better.

WK is pretty impressive in terms of benefits. Aside from the usual 401k matching, heath/vision/dental, they cover fertility, acupuncture, cell phone, commuting, and lots of pandemic/WFH stipends. Vacation is unlimited though that may change after this year. Holiday bonuses + profit sharing. 5 week sabbatical after 5 years. Will match employee donations to charitable causes. Probably a bunch of other stuff I’m forgetting but it’s generous overall.

Also 7 week sabbatical after 7 years.

Student loan repayment and grad school stipend. I think there are some mental health benefits as well.

Not sure what Droga is like but WK has the best benefits I’ve personally ever had
