Well slides, cable cars and baths full foam cubes are all well and good but I think Joel Spolsky does things better over at Fog Creek. There, the cash is spent (rather than Google-splurged) on private offices for programmers, the best ergonomic chairs and desks (height adjustable, easy to stand up to work – something my back could really use), a decent library and a shower for cyclists.

There’s a slideshow of shots from their new office here and some words from Joel about it here.

NB: this is in no way a comment on the White October offices which are indeed very nice :) (and I work from home anyway so I can roll my own facilities).
