Gross-ups typically reimburse taxes at the statutory marginal rate. They don't cover additional tax liability due to phase-outs or AMT, nor do they cover the loss of stimulus credits and other credits due to the increased gross income. It's a good idea for recipients to face higher taxes on perks, so that companies don't waste money on perks that the employees do not value.
