What's the best benefit company can give to employee?

Upward mobility (and unlimited vacation days)

Considering the safety aspect of employees, I would say a good team of safety officers to assure them during the time of crisis. for example the ongoing covid-19 pandemic or Russo-Ukrainian conflict. In addition to that, how about a solution that can potentially save lives during tragic events? It's called AreYouSafe? Bot. The best part is that it is a Slack and MS Teams integration.

A higher salary. These days, WFH, meal allowance and insurance are just tablestakes 😜

Recognition for their work and impact on the business. Won't harm to have more money anytime though! :P

Freedom, more specifically freedom to choose their working hours, location, and assignment, freedom to experiment and fail, and freedom to be themselves and not have to put airs (think introverts who have to act extraverted to "come out of their shell").

Paid break to learn innovation and be more creative as a person, Book reading sessions are the thing that I'm proving to my team meats with other facilities.

It's different for everyone - employees and companies. Startups in can be crunched for cash but flexible in WFH & PTO policies & offer equity where salary is not as strong. More mature companies can offer perks that startups just cannot - more competitive salary, tuition / education reimbursement, etc. Stipulating that salary & PTO are *at least average* for the role / level, in our very current climate, (post-vax/late-COVID) I would say the option to work from where they want is the single biggest benefit people are looking for. It's a major cited factor in the Great Re-shuffle, anyway.

The benefits should differ from person to person. For one person gym would be amazing benefit, for other - great health insurance. For one - transport compensation, for other - additional holiday. Therefore ability to choose the benefits based on their costs for the company should be the best option. If I had to choose one, I would take an ability to have a free lunch at work - where you also can choose what will you eat and make it as a small daily team-building at work. :)
