We get massive discounts on jabra. They have an AirPods competitor, but AirPods Pro are significantly more comfortable despite fewer functions.

Pretty much same as other B4 or big Corp.

hotel or rental cars discount for both work or personal travels. If you job requires a lot travel, you can rake in lot of miles or points, then redeem them for your vacation.

You can use your personal credit card for all travel except flights. I made out pretty well on hotel points that way. The per diem also provides an opportunity to bank money if you're frugal but I was personally not a huge fan

It was $47 a day in New Jersey when I was there last year. You claim however many meals you were traveling for and you get it in your paycheck

Looking to buy AirPods and such. Guessing there’s no particularly great discounts on things like that?

Not travel related but please max out your ESPP. It is free money!

Employee stock purchase plan. You can elect to have 10% of your gross pay set aside by the firm and twice a year they sell you stock at a 15% discount. You are then allowed to sell it the same day if you would like. Free money!

There is 250$ Covid remote office supplies reimbursement, you can buy an AirPod if you are on LLP side, no for AFS people

Pm, based on the job offers I got two months ago, AFS offer is also very competitive compared to other offers from big 4.
