> 20-hour work week
Wowza, that's amazing. I'd love to grab a coffee sometime and pick your brain on how it's working and any pitfalls you've found - I'd love to be able to implement something like that in my next startup.
- goshx 9y agoBelow it says 20h of remote work, so that might just be that.
- aknosis 9y agoTechnically it says 20 hours of billable work. I'm no consultant, but sometimes 20 hours of billable work is much more than 20.
- niallwingham 9y agoOh yeah... Noah's old blog post mentions billable time, but our stance has since evolved that a work week is just 20 hours, billable or not. If we're doing internal work for the company, we still track and time it to make sure we aren't going over our limit.
- ncallaway 9y ago20 hours of remote work, but that's all the work we expect. The job is 100% remote. We really believe that the 40 hour work-week is antiquated when it comes to the tech space and that having people sitting in a chair 9-5 doesn't do anything to help us be more productive.
- goshx 9y agoThat is awesome!
- iurisilvio 9y agoTotally agree with this. I always did 40 hour work-week, but recently had a child and reduced to 20 to manage his first months. I produce almost the same, but now my rss feed and youtube queue is full. Just lost my time doing nothing.
- ncallaway 9y agoSure, if you're in Seattle I'd be happy to meet up. We also get to the bay area fairly frequently.
- adrianpike 9y agoYep, I live in Ballard and work downtown - adrian at adrianpike.com!
- Azkar 9y agoI'd love to take you up on this offer as well... sdm350 at gmail
