We have three Wellness days where we can just stay home for any reason we want as long as we phone in and say we are taking a wellness day! It's wonderful!

We get 10 days of personal leave a year. That is for everything. The longer you work there the more days you get.

We get massages once a month and the standard company perks are complete life insurance including dental and optical treatment which I guess is pretty good for 'wellness'. And were allowed to access any of the games we publish for free. Considering they are MMO's that can be a good or bad thing.

That counts as "insensitive and unrequested body massage"

we get massages at our work too, every thursday. have to pay for it though, but work subsidizes (sp?) 1/2 of it so it's pretty cheap.

Our Wellness Plan also pays most of the cost of 12 massages a year! We pay up front, then get re-imbursed!
