We spend a big chunk of our life at work, so when it comes time to decide on a new job, there are some intangibles that might sway us. Intangibles being, of course, perks or “culture.” While every employee loves a salary increase, there are other ways to reward workers besides offering more money.
Below are 10 such companies that offer great perks to entice employees and retain their best workers:
1- Philips (Gurgaon branch): No Parking? Work From Home
The employees at Philips can go back and work from home if they can’t find a parking spot. They do so because they believe that working from home will be more productive and quicker than finding parking.
2- SAP Labs: Freedom to come and leave at any time
One of the largest software vendors, SAP Labs has a friendly working culture where timings are not that important. For them, productivity matters more than the timings. The employees themselves decide their work hours and can leave when their work is done. The company also has a work-from-home policy where employees can work from home once a week.
3- Future Group: You can never get fired because of the Traffic
Mumbai is infamous for its traffic. That’s why Future Group, a Mumbai-based retail company lets its employees decide their own working hours. They can come in between 8:30 to 10:30 and can leave after working for 8 hours.
4- PricewaterhouseCoopers India: An Employee’s best friend

Hmm it seems like your site ate my first comment (it was super long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up
what I had written and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog.
I as well am an aspiring blog writer but I’m still new to everything.
Do you have any points for rookie blog writers?
I’d certainly appreciate it. 0mniartist asmr
I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my own weblog and was wondering
what all is needed to get setup? I’m assuming having a blog
like yours would cost a pretty penny? I’m not very web savvy so I’m not 100% sure.
Any recommendations or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers asmr 0mniartist
