For a tech company, there's great work-life balance and great benefits, including some reimbursement for gym memberships, tuition, and personal vacation expenses. We also have a great program in which we can opt in to buy stock at a discount. Most work areas are fairly flexible; people aren't "butts in seats," and can manage their work hours as needed.

No formal work from home or work remotely policies.
It's becoming increasingly difficult to even interview for jobs that are a level up, so if you want to advance your career in terms of promotions, you'll likely have to hop companies.

Only higher levels get stocks as part of a bonus.
