0. Proper ergonomic furniture, including height-adjustable desks (ideally hydraulic sit-stand), depth-adjustable chairs, standing mats, and laptop/monitor risers plus external peripherals. 1. Quiet / walls (haven’t found those in over a decade, tho, so...) 2. Non-fluorescent light. Ideally from nice big windows with a view of something other than the side of the building across the street. 3. Summer Fridays (afternoons off between Memorial Day and Labor Day; common in NYC companies that originated in the 1980s or before) 4. Norms of taking > 3wks/yr PTO 5. Flexible hours 6. Keeping the fridge stocked with milk to go with all that free coffee and tea (so many places take weeks to restock whenever they run out of milk. Such a simple thing. Boggles the mind.)
