Pretty lucky, my office has some great facilities to encourage active commuting. Shower room has ample lockers, showers (not pictured lol), towels, hair dryers, ironing boards, and a heated drying cabinet so your wet kit is always dry by the time you ride home.
Bike storage is hella secure, need to get past 3 secure doors to access it. There are an assortment of different racks so you’re bound to find one that suits your bike. There's also a repair stand with tools, a track pump, and power points to charge ebikes while they’re parked.
If your commute wasn’t long enough there's a free gym and even a couple of zwift bikes. Upstairs there is free cereal and fruit, sparkling water and beer on tap (beer locked until 4!), and a rooftop balcony with a barbecue and a view of the Yarra river.
I have young kids so I only come in 2-3 times a week, but I really appreciate the facilities when I do!

oh man, it’s not real polite when people say “must be nice”, but
So nice. Even though I don’t have it, it makes me happy to know it’s out there.
Wow. Is this a shitpost for us plebs? I frantically check my work email every morning so maybe I’ll finally get the form that will one day get me a locker in a place that’s a 3 on that scale of 10. Right on, man. Keep riding.
“hella” sounds like Northern California, but bike-friendly facilities doesn’t sound very American.
I shower at a gym one mile from my office and chain my bike to a tree. Your set-up I better
Do you work in fucking heaven? Dang!
are they hiring?
Where do you work? Strava 😂 looks amazing
I mean, it’s a nice setup and all, but how many magpies do you have to dodge to get there?
my Straggler spends her days locked to the scaffolding around the crumbling 1916 nursing school dorm that used to be our offices. Now I have an open cubicle that looks like a homeless encampment because I keep my work clothes…at work.
My office could actually compete up until the free fruit, drinks, and beer, and the outdoor deck with a view. We have an outdoor deck, but there’s no view.
I also live in the US. Wild, I know!
Damn. What an office!!!!!
Googling melb yarra bend now for my future employer 😁
Sign me up
I’ve been to a lot of these as a bike mechanic for ride to work day servicing and such. Some are 4 and 5 star hotel level ?
I’m just happy to have a shower. Locker of any sort is icing on the cake.
I more than once showered in a plumbing chase, while the in-building gym/lockerrooms were under construction.
Nice. Congrats. Happy for you.
Wow. Good companies are rare!
Ok, I’m SUPER jealous right now! 🙂
I park at a shitty bike rack next to a trash can. It’s covered, at least.
