I had a friend who worked as a project manager for a major telecom and their policy was to basically furlough her for a few weeks (paid time off) after a major project winds down. She's there if something bad happens, but otherwise it's downtime (and retained experience!) before the next project. It seems like a sensible and healthy policy.

- hnick 6y agoI just meant it in the general sense of the word, as a leave of absence at the company's behest that could be paid or unpaid.
