We respect you more than to try to lure you with promises of iPads, snacks, foosball tables or any of that junk...
Thank you, I'm glad companies are respecting the fact that good developers can see through these 'perks', and hope this will go the way of the 'rockstar' or 'ninja' developer descriptors. We can all afford plenty of $1.50 peanut butter and jelly sandwiches to maximum gluttony levels on our own salary, and this is no way to prevent weight gain at a startup. About the foosball tables, at the last startup I was, we were so busy that if I or anyone else were caught near it or the complimentary Wii/XBox/Pool Table/Jacuzzi, it would be guaranteed to appear somewhere on the next performance review.
