Companies offer the chill-out areas and giant slides, of course, with an ulterior motive: the one Who finds his or her job well, works better – but maybe longer. Who is friends with his colleagues, takes work topics for the common beer. “In the past, the employees have made the evening sports, or have met up with friends in the pub.
