Below is a diagram for the Great Place to Work organization. They believe that this diagram what make a great workplace, and you will notice that you see experiences and relationships - not bonuses and perks. That is not to say that having bonuses and perks will hurt your organization, but if you think about it - if your company can only provide those perks and bonuses but does not provide positive working relationships and experiences, how great of a workplace do you really have??
On the bottom portion you see three arrows steming from the word "Employee". This is how the employee views a great workplace - they can trust the people they work for, have pride in the work they do, and enjoy the people they work with. Trust is demonstrated through management's credibility, respect by how the employee is treated and fairness on how the employee feel's they should be treated.
When I initally looked at this, I did not get it; but as I am doing more and more research, I do understand. It comes down to the Employee, and if the employee doesn't trust the organization to do right, the culture will suffer.
