Vol. 34 // MAY NEWSLETTER

Our data shows that employees want to volunteer 4.7 times per year. Our data also shows that employees want 3 months of vacation and a Whole Foods expense card. We can't give your employees all the dream perks, but we can definitely help you with awesome volunteer and engagement programs.
