Want a New Job With Perks? *This* Company Offers a Monthly Dating Stipend
From covering wedding costs to offering unlimited maternity leave, companies today are getting allll kinds of creative when it comes to employee perks. But dating app Hinge might have the most erm, unique benefit we've heard yet: the "Great Date" program. The deal? All employees, single or coupled, will now be given a monthly stipend of $200—to put toward hitting the town with a lover.
The thinking behind the program boils down to a practice-what-you-preach mentality. Since the app is committed to getting its members out on great dates, they want employees to embody that—by seeking out and reviewing date ideas that might be of interest to the Hinge community (which members can then reference for date-spiration).
Whether you're in a rut with your S.O. or feeling like a wallflower, the promise of a fabulous, free dinner (or three) should be enough to get you off the couch and in the mood for love—don't you agree? Bravo, Hinge.
