[Happy Trails]

The Amex gold card where I got to keep the accrued points.
Sadly, no longer.

 

[turnip666]

A regualr paycheck and someone else paying for my flights.

Still, I get to pay all the bills and keep all the points.

 

[Warks]

Company car where you never had to put your hand in your pocket and you didn't even have to take it to be serviced - they picked it up from my workplace!

With all my car expenses lately it's a good perk. Even with the FBT.
Cost me over $1400 to get my rego and a green slip last month. Not to mention another $600 in 'repairs' (tyres, suspension) to pass rego.

Ah the company car!

 

[Ikara]

Now that I'm retired a salary would be a really good perk!

[Denali]

Pension and perks that the pollies get once they retire. I could live happily with that.

 

[JohnK]

To be able to book flights and accommodation on my credit card and be re-imbursed.

Now I still book my own flights and accommodation on my own credit card but no one re-imburses me.

 

[Wozz]

ID 90 tickets!

 

[medhead]

Tea "lady". Saw this once when visiting a WA government workplace.

 

[RooFlyer]

Company Land Cruiser. Open use ("within reason").

I'd love to "work" for a couple of years and be set with those benefits.

1. Completely free and unlimited mobile usage.
2. Got to keep points from CC usage. That one was a nice little earner. Now, no one gets the points. Thanks Accounts Department!

Just wish I got what the rest of the team get:

Work vehicle, phone, and a company Amex that they are allowed to join the rewards program (and none of them have :evil.

 

[The Rok]

Fully expensed company car of my choice, replaced every 3 months....

 

[Sdtravel]

Friend has that at his work. They work them hatdnso watch out for "dealer seconds"

Currently where I am
- lunch every day. Special lunch on Friday
- fridges stocked with food and beer
- shopping list to get stuff we want within reason
- fortnightly shoulder and neck massage
- endless summer for high performancers where you can work out of the SFO office when its winter here. Company pays

 

[JessicaTam]

An office interstate or overseas that required my attendance.

Mind you, I am still working on that one.

 

[amaroo]

Unlimited entertainment budget. For 10 years I worked for a very wealthy family company - they were always complaining I wasn't entertaining enough! Geez, I racked up some points with that one....

An office interstate or overseas that required my attendance.

Mind you, I am still working on that one.

And here i am trying to reduce the overseas offices that require my attendance.

Sounds like a standard tech company. Well the endless summer is a new one. Although summer in SF is much like a winter in Sydney depending on where you are

Just out of curiosity what type of work do you do? You always seem to be jetting about
