Does your job have any perks

Does your company have any company perks? I am considering a new position which is said to have "great" perks. I didn't ask what those were so wondering what others consider perks and what others .. get ask perks.
Thanks for your help in this.

My company has a lot of perks...
Clubs on site (from A-Z literally - Argentine Tango to European Folk Dancing to Photography to Gardening (with community garden plots available) to Horseback riding and more).
403(b) equivalent to a 401(k) but for educational institutions
Employer deposits of 10% of your salary into an equivalent account (not a match, a straight deposit)
Flex time
Medical insurance, dental, etc. (which is available with as few as 28 hours worked a week)
On site childcare
Fitness Center, employee leagues (golf, bowling, volleyball, badminton, etc.)
Scholarships for employee's children
on site credit union
Phased retirement
Insurance for retirees
Plus I work on 10 square miles of restored prairie and wetlands with jogging / biking trails and other natural beauty.

Wow, ours are not that great
My building has a fitness facility one time fee of $100 unlimited use during flexible business hours
401k partial match
Decent but costly insurance options, vision, dental and legal
Current time off is amazing (but I'm over the first time jump)
Working from home or flex time not really an option
The purchasing department has set up some discount programs, for example park and fly discount, travel assistance through our travel agent, clothing store discounts - I haven't taken advantage of any of these but the one I want to look into is Apple!

My boss really does give me perks. We have 401k, company team building events where we win prizes, the CEO hands out personal perks that he has come across at times. I wish we had some of the bonues others have listed, but... what can I say, we are ok.
