Being able to cash in your uncapped sick time to reimburse gym membership and equipment. Cashed it out to buy a bike, an Apple Watch, and a kayak…as well as paid for entire OrangeTheory membership.

Work culture was toxic AF though so I had to leave…but that was my favorite benefit so far

My employer allows zero rollover.

My current job lets me pay a $28 monthly fee and go to a bunch of gems in my area. I think I'm signed up for 12 right now. It's nice to switch things up, and different gyms have different amenities, like racquetball courts, saunas, pools, etc. It's probably the coolest perk I've ever seen.

I wish my job would offer something like this. My last company actually had a gym and it was soooo nice. I would work out and shower before work and it was so lovely.

Day 1 vested of 401k funds & Co match !!!

They don’t tell you they take their funds if you’re not totally vested which is like a scam!!!!

I tried asking this in my own bowl with no responses, so seeing if other consultants have run into this situation. I’m on parental leave, I got an offer for another firm, great opportunity and pay. How does one go about a resignation mid-leave when you would start the new job before the leave ends? Two weeks notice or just say I am not returning effective the day of the new job? Any things to consider besides potentially repaying the employer healthcare premium?

You learn who actually didn't consider you a friend/someone in their life based on wedding invitations. It's loud and clear.

Bitter? No. Entitled? No. Maybe taken aback, putting things into perspective. Realizing the friendship was only temporary. You were there when they needed you, but they didn't consider you an actual friend at all.
