1. That was shopify

2. It's an expenses budget for home working equipment, not just cash in their paychecks, and not with max performance rating for max bonus

1. My bad, fixed in edit (originally said Spotify).

2. Does that matter? Paycheck stipend is easier to process for everyone and just makes it the same amount for everyone so policy is easier.

Seems like a nice thing to do for employees that might have extra expenses during the lockdown (higher grocery cost, etc.)

It may matter quite a bit for tax purposes.
