Imagine coming into your first day at a new job, only to find a big tub of candy on your desk. Doesn't sound so bad, does it? In fact, it's just one of many benefits available at the companies Fortune listed among those with the coolest perks.

What's interesting is that those fun advantages actually benefit company and workers in roughly equal measure.
