Why don't companies hire programmers for 6 hours a day, but keep paying for 8 hours a day? As a company you will probably attract the best in the field - programmers who are 4 times as efficient - and the programmer is not able to keep his/her concentration for 8 hours a day anyway.
- ruler88 10y agoI think the principle is happening already, just shifted over - companies like Facebook and Google are hiring programmers for 9 hours a day and paying 12 hours a day. If a programmer is really good and want the lifestyle of 6 hrs work, she is better off freelancing.
- empath75 10y agoThere are lots of companies where that's the case. I have unlimited time off and don't have to be in the office on any set schedule. It's rare that I work a full 40 unless it's extremely busy.
