One tone-deaf employer I worked for:
The production/assembly building would get very hot in the summer. One day, a decision was made to pass out bottles of Gatorade to the workers in the building. The marketing/sales department decided to turn this into a social media 'opportunity', they left their air-conditioned offices to have pictures taken of them handing cold bottles of Gatorade to the production floor employees.
They made it look like an act of charity on LinkedIn, Facebook, etc.
What I've seen other employers do is provide large coolers of drinks and cups for employees to have throughout the day when it's very hot out.
Even dumber than that, this happened just weeks after the company removed the soft drink vending machines from the building because of 'health' reasons.
