The security tech firm Verkada has spent $300,000 in a year, allowing groups of three employees or more expense up to $30 for food and drinks as long as they spend it on local businesses.

Verkada employees, Aditya Anguria, left, Julie Ann Barrozo and Virginia Ramsey head back to their office after they bought drinks at Tong Sui in downtown San Mateo, Calif., on Thursday, April 4, 2024. Verkada will reimburse $30 in total to its employees when three employees or more spend $30 on food or drinks after 3 p.m. at local businesses as part of the company’s 3-3-3 program.

“We’re in the office five days a week, and we do because we believe that it’s great for people’s careers, and it’s good for the company,” said Kameron Rezai, Verkada’s chief financial officer, who helped create the program last April. “The second piece of feedback we got was people were kind of using it as an opportunity to connect across departments.”

Rezai said while the company has grown from a start-up to a global enterprise, San Mateo as a community is embedded in its DNA. “People were still reluctant to go out, especially for face-to-face shopping,” said Judith Xiao, a marketing and sales manager with Tong Sui. “We had to rely heavily on delivery platforms to increase our business volume.”
