Any Other Business – 30/08
City workers are finding themselves lured to work for firms with unusual office perks, such as in-house bowling lanes, bars and slides, according to a survey by City recruitment firm Empiric. The number one attraction for potential employees is a roof terrace, closely followed by dedicated beanbag areas. But are there any flash offices in the Square Mile? Empiric tells The Capitalist that Red Bull’s offices near skyscraper The Shard, complete with a ping pong meeting room and giant slide, mean that is has officially earned its “cool office” wings. Sadly no banks or law firms can quite compete.
