Re: Job benefits

It's great that you're considering these things before you even get started with having a business with employees. However, I have a (very) little experience in this area and I know that employees where I work would always choose higher wages above perks. So whatever you choose to offer, make sure you're not spending money on it that you could be putting in their wage packets instead.

As for paid holidays - that's an odd one. Presumably this is not an employment right in the US or Canada (where are you planning to live once you graduate?). Over here, it's your legal right to get 20 days paid leave a year, although some employers can sort-of get round this if they jump through enough hoops.
