As a Yahoo, I assure you this is in no way "as the Internet company searches for new ways to cut costs during the recession". We do this every year, as do other companies -- like Apple, I believe.
- jayp 17y agoBut this time it is mandatory.
- seldo 17y agoThere was mandatory time off last year, too, they just didn't say when it had to happen.
- revicon 17y ago(another yahoo here) It is not, nor has it ever been mandatory. There are plenty of folks on my team who don't celebrate xmas working during the break, but some facilities are shutting down (coffee shop, cafeteria, front desks, etc).
- seldo 17y agoThis year the Sunnyvale campus is having some maintenance work done to the power systems, so it's actually completely shutting down, but with lots of people working remotely during that time.
