    10% off at Target and occasionally free food/drink if we have to stay late / long days.
    Also sometimes free food in the breakroom and prizes for getting Redcards.

    I love that 10% tho. Cool

    bona drag.:
    I get a 50% discount on any clothes I buy, apart from coats. Those are only 30% and so is jewellery. Still a very good deal.
    Corporate changed the policy and we now get 50% off everything including outerwear, footwear, and accessories, as well as 50% off already marked down sale items. It's fabulous.

    I clean part of an office building with several other people, so one great perk for me is not having to deal with people. Laughing
    Well, at least not too many people, anyways. I don't plan to work here forever, but it's a lot better than my last job. I would have a full-time job if it weren't for working on a college degree.

    I enjoy organising, transcribing and formatting content, and it's working from home which is a huge bonus!
    I guess you could say I'm a bit of an organisational freak who has an appreciation for neat form and design.

    Perks of being a dispatcher is that I'm aloud to tell grown men off if they're giving me an attitude. I essentially am the reason these guys get paid so I'm not required to let them push me around. I am above them.

    I get to be outdoors, and meet people from all over the states and different countries.
    I work at a marina where crabbing is really popular, and for a lot of people it's their first time going, so everyone is excited and in good spirits. It's a nice environment.

    Free products every month. I love everything we get because it gives me a chance to try them out without spending all my money. I also learn a lot from the customers about our own products and how they affect them; it helps me understand our stuff better.

    I get to just work from home. I don't have to go into an office or interact with people I can't stand, lol. Whenever I feel like posting new material, I just get my camera out and have fun. And the pay is good too.

    - 80% staff discount on 2 sim-only contracts. I bought my phone outright and pay £7 a month for 40GB of data, unlimited minutes, unlimited texts and my Spotify subscription comes with my phone plan. I also get 4 60% discounts on sim-only, which I use to keep the family phone bills under £50 for 5 of us.
    - we're a quiet department, so we get a lot of time to sit and chat, or time to read and they allow us to have the Kindle app so we can do this.
    - people in my department are so cool, we all get along really well and it makes the time spent at work a little bit brighter
    - we know about all of the big phone launches before consumers

    I just landed a part-time job as a housekeeper in an old mansion, the perks of which include flexible hours, good pay, and absolutely no coworkers or interaction with people whatsoever. It's just me, alone, in a big empty mansion. I'm very excited.

    Back when I worked at Barnes & Noble, we had 30% off anything in the store, on top of any coupons/bargain prices/sales. We also had 50% off cafe items, which was the best part. We were also allowed to take a hardcover on loan for a week, leaving the dust jacket with a manager and signing it out.

    At my current job, I've been here long enough to have 3 weeks vacation (with 4 additional days due to floating holidays). There's also an employee benefits hub that's supposed to have good deals for things, but I've never utilized it. I used to also get my monthly bus pass through my employer and paid cheaper, but they stopped that just before Covid. Since Covid though, I've been able to do hybrid work, with either certain days out of the office when I was in my old department, to alternating weeks in and out of office in my new department.
