Palantir lavish spending article on WSJ

This article popped up today about Palantir on Wall Street Journal. I was always intrigued by this company. https://www.wsj.com/articles/palantir-has-a-20-billion-valuation-and-a-pretty-big-problem-it-keeps-losing-money-1542042135 Non paywall link: https://outline.com/DUx7Kj Thanks to Cato Can someone confirm if all the perks mentioned by WSJ is indeed true? Like, can you expense suits or have laundry done for free in office? Can someone with senior role provide end to end benefits of Palantir and benefits history? i mean every single thing - I am curious! i just can't believe what companies do these days lol. Thanks.

Why would you fire an employee for expensing lingerie and suite? Just reject the expense claim!

Maybe they already paid it. And/or wanted to make an example

If it were an intentional exploitation even after warning, then it does warrant punishment. However, firing is bit harsh. I have heard stories that once Google fired an employee for taking chips home for a birthday party, not sure if it were true, but now it looks like it might be.

Telling an employee to get their ass on a plane last minute is one thing, but also putting them in economy just because it is last-minute is a dick move.

Not everyone got cash like Apple does.
