Mayer Gives Yahoo Workers Free iPhones

Marissa Mayer's quest to boost morale at Yahoo doesn't stop at free food and office makeovers. The new CEO is also offering employees a brand-new smartphone with free data and phone service, Business Insider reports. Workers in 22 countries must ditch their Blackberry—Yahoo's current corporate phone—but can choose between an iPhone 5, HTC One X, Samsung Galaxy S3, Nokia Lumia 920, and EVO 4G LTE.

"We'd like our employees to have devices similar to our users, so we can think and work as the majority of our users do," says a company memo. The plan will cost millions of dollars, but that's "pocket change" for a company that rakes in billions, notes Business Insider.
