The potential for abuse seems high to me. I say that as someone what worked at a company where people kept sleeping bags near the their desk so they could stay all night to meet deadlines.
I've also worked at companies that had rooms full of cots for sleeping over night when on a deadline even though apparently the laws in that country, Japan, prohibit sleeping over night at the office. Japan is notorious for not actually enforcing their labor laws.

- zyxley 11y agoYeah, basically the only way this wouldn't scare me off would be if it was explicitly advertised as a siesta-style schedule - e.g. everybody works X hours/day but with a break of an hour or two in the middle of the day to do whatever... and even only then if I was actually convinced it wouldn't be used to pressure for unpaid work.
