Things I've seen: * No 401ks (which means I'm paying extra in taxes). * Crappy health benefits (prescriptions costing 4x what they do under other plans or high deductible plans). * No commuter benefits/pre-tax Clipper cards. * No tuition reimbursement or education budget, the assumption being that just working is supposed to be the whole of the employee's career advancement. * No parental leave. * No childcare support (why this isn't rolled into coworking spaces I have no idea.) * No HR in case of harassment, politics or personal vendettas.
