So instead of brand new ones, the company opted to buy refurbished fitness equipment. The company is on a mission to help their overweight employees get back on track. But they don’t have enough budget for it. That’s why they opted not to buy brand new equipment to buy more than just a few pieces.

I think this endeavor is commendable. Not all companies are concerned about their employees’ health. Most are indifferent about it. So for a company to actually invest on fitness equipment, albeit not brand new, is a blessing for the employees of that company who need it. I would love to work for a company like that.
