For anyone here who runs a startup, I propose two lifestyle benefits you should add:
1. Unlimited YouTube Premium
2. Unlimited drink reimbursement (coffee, tea, smoothies, whatever)
The psychological sense of loss from those two things would be larger than any 5% raise.
I don't like that math, rather have the 5% than $8k in perks.
The pitch is for the employer: This would likely be both cheaper and simultaneously stickier.
I personally wouldn't want to hire a startup employee who couldn't figure out how to install a browser extension. ;-)
You're assuming startups are all tech. At my job, tech is not even 1/3 of employees.
Browser extensions are not meant for the technical crowd, they're meant to be installed by all users of the browser. If someone is not bright enough to figure out how to install a browser extension, or change a lightbulb, or refill the ice tray, tech worker or not I don't need them in my startup.
Roku tho
ah yes, let me just install a browser extension on the kids ipad
FYI for next time you're buying, you can install Firefox on Android, although this is perhaps threatened by Google's planned changes to user's ability to install software.
Here, this will help with that
