Spotify

Music geeks, this is your dream workplace. Spotify workers get employee concert lunches, where major artists such as Joss Stone and Lily Allen perform.

Plus, free concert tickets, office ping pong tables, and video games don't exactly hurt company morale, we're sure.

Google

Of course Google is on this list. Its massive main campus, also known as the Googleplex, has everything from on-site haircuts, food EVERYWHERE (it's a company policy that no employee can be more than a certain distance away from food), game rooms, laundry and dry cleaning, plus medical staff on-site. Their other offices are equally perked up, with food truck pits, differently themed office areas, LEGO displays, and much more.

BarkBox

Sure, they have seating cubbies and an unlimited vacation policy, but the big draw to this startup is, of course, the dogs.

Employees can bring their dogs to the office and are provided pet insurance as part of the company plan. Every day, there are roughly 12 dogs or so hanging out with the humans. Plus, there's a massive dog toy pile that blows every dog's mind.

Zillow

Treadmill desks, whiskey in the office, catered lunches...it's all there for Zillow employees. But the biggest way the company looks out for staff is through parenting perks. For example, they'll ship breast milk overnight to mothers who work for them, if they're traveling.

Method

Method, which designs integrated brand, product, and service experiences, is also a company that wants their staff to have fun. The astro-turf room with a ping pong table is a nice start. But they also have a staff Prom Night that has a planning committee, costumes, and photo booths. It's like all the best parts of high school taken to the next level.

Company benefits include an office music studio, a games room, and regular "Whiskey Fridays." It almost sounds like the best club ever, instead of a place where people work.
