While some companies might give their employees a hard time, others give them iPhone Pros.

A media company in China left the internet shook after announcing that it was giving all its staff an iPhone 16 Pro each.

The CEO of Mediastorm made his employees' day (maybe year) with a single text.

It read: "As usual, everyone will be given an iPhone 16 Pro. It doesn’t matter if you’re an intern or a new hire, as long as you’re with the company at this time, you’ll receive one. The company will also be covering any related taxes, don’t worry."

For the record, an iPhone 16 Pro sits on the higher end of the iPhone 16 line up. The cheapest version of it costs S$1,599.

The screenshot of his text reportedly went viral on Chinese social media sites, racking up nearly 14 million views.

Some people may have zeroed in on the "as usual" part.

Next level benefits

Handing out benefits that sound too good to be true seem to be a yearly tradition for the company.

A gander at their YouTube channel showed the company giving out iPhone 14 Pros in 2022 and iPhone 15 Pros in 2023, Santa Claus style.

A spokesperson for the company confirmed that this year's iPhone 16 Pro giveaway was real, though the phone only hits the shelves on Sep. 20.

Employees were also supposedly gifted the Apple Watch Series 10.
