I agree that a 401k match is better than the equivalent salary. Match is often a company policy and non-negotiable. Salary is negotiated per individual and usually more than once over the lifetime of a job, so it's easier to get more salary than more retirement match.
It's the pingpong tables that kill me. Why does this make me want to work there?
- madcaptenor 10y agoPing-pong (foosball, etc.) tables make me less likely to want to work somewhere. At an old job the foosball table was near my desk. Whatever little amusement I got from playing foosball was dwarfed by the annoyance of other people playing foosball while I was trying to work. Ping-pong would be worse because I'd be trying to get things done while balls are flying through the air near me.
