I'm almost afraid to ask which two sentences came from real job descriptions..

I'm guessing this is one of them:

> Yes you’ll get all the usual benefits, but if you’re really going for perks, Google is your best bet! If you want to make an impact, then please apply.

My guesses (two sentence _pairs_):

> Plan on working ~100+ hours a week during sprints. If that scares you, don’t apply.

> Yes you’ll get all the usual benefits, but if you’re really going for perks, Google is your best bet! If you want to make an impact, then please apply.

I'm betting on:

> We’ll have a large variety of alcohol in the office as well as an assortment of video games for the perfect frat environment

I recall a (short-lived?) trend a year or two ago of startups offering free beer as a perk, and generally trying to describe themselves like a frathouse.

Having beer, fine. Describing yourself as a frat house seems both a bit sexist and immature. I believe you but it's a bit appalling. But I supposed it's a good signal for people looking to apply.
My guess:

> "Equity: 0.1% - 2% for the ‘right person’."
