I hear a lot of Facebook hate, but it really doesn’t rain on my parade. I’ve always heard Facebook makes you feel wanted as a person with incredible perks. What are the best/coolest? Particularly the ones you don’t find on Glassdoor

At Facebook, I've never regretted the hard work I put into something.
in 2020. Lol, what's next, 9/11?
1. Medical insurance is way cheaper than Salesforce, if no dependents - completely free, without compromising on plan coverage (meanings plans are great).
2. Maternity / paternity leave is 4 months (after disability leave 6-8 in case of maternity) and covered at 100%. At Salesforce duration is the same, but pay if only 80%. On top of that you get paid 4K for baby expenses as one time gift. At salesforce it’s $250 instead of 4K. Too late for me to appreciate this though, as I am done with having kids. But maybe some other folks will appreciate. Trust me, 26-28 weeks of maternity leave is great. Just trust me. Especially at 100% pay.
3. Wellness benefit, can expense $700 or something like that a year. We have similar perk as Salesforce, $100 per month, and it’s great by the way. Can be used towards classes, gym membership, etc.
4. Free food. At Salesforce, we don’t have free food. It truly sucks, trust me.
The free dry cleaning service on campus, one of the best foods, free bike repair, wellness benefit, full reimbursement to conference around US, CEO does every week Q&A
where it’s quite open to ask lot of questions which what I heard would not have been encouraged in other companies, Invite friends, family like all day for free food whole day.
