For years, workplaces have been caught in a tug of war.
On the one side: perks. Pizza, ping pong, free drinks, beanbags.
On the other: purpose. Flexibility, autonomy, trust, meaningful work.
The truth? Employees want both.
Pizza parties can add to a great culture, and don’t have to mean that a company is hiding something.
The sweet spot is when you balance the two:
-
Perks that make work fun.
-
Purpose that makes work meaningful.
