Speaking of perks of negative value, I once worked somewhere with ping pong tables, fuzzball, and so on, where a man started playing the bagpipes directly behind me when I was trying to get some damned work done!
Good to know that ping pong tables are a red flag for someone else! I personally avoid any gig advertising for "rock star" developers on much the same basis...
- souprock 8y agoWe hired a rock star developer. He had been an actual rock star, with a song that was nominated for a Billboard Music Award. Does that count? Fortunately, he doesn't play music when I'm trying to get work done. We hired him to develop software. I wish I liked using our ping pong table. It would help shrink my belly. Getting up out of your seat to get your blood flowing is important. Some people take a walk around the block at our office. Some people lift weights. Some people pace. Maybe ping pong is kind of silly, but it fills a need. Humans aren't built to sit motionless all day long.
