  • Free breakfast every day, firm retreats, day off for moving, and the excuses for Kirkland funded lunches at very nice restaurants come thick and fast throughout the year but the best has to be access to the bar and restaurant at the top of the Gherkin.

  • Breakfast every morning, dinners and taxis in the evening, if you need then, social events, paid by the firm, throughout the year and being taken out to restaurants, (a lot!).

  • Access to the bar at the top of the Gherkin is a good perk! The firm ensures you get a car home if you work past 9pm, which is a great benefit.

  • Access to the bar at the top of the Gherkin is cool – it's a great place to take friends and family. The office is closed on Christmas Eve, whereas most other firms are open – this helps to stretch the holiday allowance a little further!

  • You get free dinner and a cab home after 9pm and it's handy having the bar at the Gherkin for drinks.
