With the Baby Boomer generation retiring, many companies are trying to find ways to replenish themselves with some…interesting benefits. Such as Beer Fridays and employee provided kegs.
1. Barkley; Kansas City, Missouri
Great perks: This advertising agency has an annual “Kidnap Day,” when the company shuts down for the day and workers are taken to an undisclosed location, like an arcade.
Additionally, there are break-time activities, like pool and ping-pong tournaments, and free Boulevard beer on tap after 4 p.m. To top it off, employees are given birthdays off (with $25 spending money); on-site yoga; and a rooftop observation deck with gardens, Wi-Fi access and barbecue grills.
9. Digitas Health; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Great perks: Free gym memberships (including lunchtime yoga); “Beer Fridays” during the colder months to kick off the weekends; and summer hours on Fridays to get out and enjoy the weather.
We want to work here.
