For those of you who are into programming not just for the money. I would like to know which benefits you would like to have (or already have).

OK, maybe taking away the money factor will limit this question too much. I am surprised to see that most companies have a fixed set for their benefits package. Were you able to negotiate something new or just your salary? What things have you seen out there and/or value most?
