Consuming Issues: How important are job perks? Listen to Saurav Chopra, CEO at Perkbox
What do you look for in a new job? Work life balance; decent pay; a supportive environment; a good pension scheme? What about free lunch; on site gym; mini golfing; slides instead of chairs? Recently though we've seen places like John Lewis, Caffe Nero and Zizzi roll back on theirs - citing the minimum wage increase as a factor. But how important are they anyway? Very according to Perkbox - who specialise in, helping employers and "invest in employees’ happiness"
