How much perks do you have in PE? (Coming from MBB)

Hey. Recently did some interviews for a few MM funds and one LC fund here in Europe. I come from an MBB and have loads of non-monetary perks (i.e., taxi budget outside of works, extremely attractive luxury hotel rates, business class flights independt of flight duration, in general best hotels in town while on b-trips, educational leaves, etc.) 

Am wondering what to expect on that front in PE. Do you guys travel a lot and if so, do you also have similar perks?
