    I get to work from home.
    My company pays for my cell phone, internet bill, and gym membership.
    I get a great deal of discounts from clients my company has worked with.
    My general benefits are great.
    Every year I get a new computer.
    I get to (loosely) set my own schedule.
    I often get to attend events and conferences that interest me. I just went to Outdoor Retailer a few weeks ago.

    Joking aside, just looking at the homepage in dev tools is pretty disheartening. There are so many errors.

    There's a lady named Anna who works with me who used to be a caterer. She cooks full meals for us regularly. I'm talking biscuits and gravy for breakfast, fresh baked cookies in the afternoons, homemade pasta.

    I got a really nice Christmas bonus this year.
    The bank I previously worked at for over 10 years only gave us a turkey.


    ETA, because of our bonuses, almost all the employees at my branch were able to "adopt" Angels from the Angel Tree and provided Christmas gifts for local underprivileged kids. I honestly had a blast with my girls buying for ours and it felt amazing to be able to afford it this year.

    +1 for the Angel Tree! The kids and I shopped for a few this year, and they loved it. It was gratifying to see them excited about being kind to other kids this season.

    On topic:

    The bonuses for company performance were drop dead gorgeous this year.

    Nowhere else has ever given me such opportunity to be influential and have a meaningful impact.

    Access to drug databases & all the free package inserts I want
    Free mental test of short term memory (I like to make a game out of work to pass the time/keep my whits about me by memorizing intricate details...names, #s, histories, changes, etc.)

    Less stressful working environment (solo ~80% of time working, overnights) & plenty of entertaining stories from my ordinary whackos I call my regulars
