I've seen a lot of posts discussing comp (salary + bonus), but have not yet seen a post discuss perks at various banks (per diem, Uber policies, etc). For example - I know that my friend at Truist has an essentially unlimited dinner stipend, while another friend at Jefferies has a $30 dinner stipend. Any data points are much appreciated; I'm sure there are a lot of other curious monkeys out there.

Largest perk has to be the receipt machine. Just use one to generate fake receipts and get comped for them.
But you do get a "banker bag" that you can sell to undergrad hardos for a few hundred bucks, so not all bad.
My bank doesn't even give out banker bags for free. You have to buy them for $30 and they're pretty small.
Lol some banks are still at $25 dinner stipend
Typically it's a dinner stipend if you stay past a certain time.
Postage discount. Can send heavy things across the country for very cheap. can't beat it.
internet, ms office suite, running water you know the works :)
We have quite a few good perks:
Unlimited dinner spend if you stay past a certain hour. It doesn't say unlimited anywhere but as long as you are sensible they will cover anything
Taxi/Uber back home after 9pm. Pretty good all things considered
A fund to play sports with. We use it for 5vs5 football
Monthly drinks paid for by the office and often other events (wine and cheese night, social outings etc)
We can also participate in sporting event. Recently the company flew a bunch of European colleagues out to the US to participate in a charity race
