Our office has a pool table, a pinball machine, fugeball table, 2 XBox360's and 2 big flat plasma screens and a big assed lounge.... we can stop and play any whenever we want to take a break.... many a meeting is held over a game of pool in this place ;-)
We also have a REAL coffee machine, and coffee/tea/milk/sugar and stuff are provided, as are healthy snacks (dried fruit, nuts and stuff) and we get a weekly delivery of a huge basket of fruit to consume as we please. Oh, and a fridge regularly restocked with a variety of bottles of fruit juice, also on the house.
We do "Team Pizza" lunches for anyone's birthday or special events or sometimes for no reason at all....
We do organized social stuff every couple of months, but the folks are also members of an exclusive "Vodka Bar", and the troops head on that way most Friday's for liquid refereshment on management.....
Last Christmas EVERYONE in the office got a PSP from the bosses.
Pay is generous, bonuses are (I would bet) BETTER than most in the biz, working conditions rock and Ben, Phil and Lori REALLY care - they don't just pay lip service, they have engendered a real family environment.
Ben, Phil and Lori, as people and for and also for their attitudes towards working life, make working for
LionDollars a fucking pleasure.
We get all our travel and show expenses covered, and Phoenix came down to Australia last year for a couple of weeks and Z will get his turn soon enough I would expect.
Our lives do NOT suck.
At all.
LionDollars makes a sensational sponsor program because the
"look after those that look after you" is not a policy, it is an ATTITUDE.
We look after our affiliates like Ben, Phil and Lori look after us.
The folks take our top webmasters, traffic brokers and good friends to Amsterdam EVERY year for New Years Eve as a REAL "thankyou" for their help and support, and it is ALL paid for !!
Have you ever seen anyone posting they are moving on from LionDollars ?
Things here are in no policy manual - nor just spoken about - it is just done as a matter of course. It's natural, and you cannot create that as much as you try.
