You really can’t beat a good work perk, can you?

And it’s really no wonder why. Take companies that embrace flexible working hours, for example.

Intake form. It’s a term I’m embarrassed to say I used for many years. You know, the form you take into a hiring manager meeting, to scope out a new req?
