Paying for a gym membership is pretty standard perk in the industry. If anything, this is usually considered bare minimum

You can't get employees if you don't pay them. This is what paying employees means in the tech industry.

That's what it means in Silicon Valley. It's not what it means in India, South Africa, Brazil, nor even Europe I think. These are all places where the WMF has just been fundraising. Nobody is forcing the WMF to hire in America.

WMF doesn't just hire in america. Although you probably only get the gym membership if you are american as the non americans are usually contractors.

True. Though all C-suite execs are US-based and US salaries make up the vast majority of all salary costs, as well as the vast majority of total staff costs if you include contractors.
