I would work 4 days per week (this is, 32h/week) for 100% salary. I'm not joking. The current 5 day/week, 40h/week is nonsense: the only reason software companies offer such a contract is because of "tradition", they are not interested in thinking about "Hey, perhaps working less than 40h/week makes us equally productive? Let's try!".
Some companies in some countries offer 7.5h/day (37.5h/week) and NOTHING bad happened. Turns out it probably improves the lives of the company's employees (which in turn, improves the company itself).
No, I wouldn't work 4 days per week for 80% of the salary. Hell, I would be more productive working 4 days per week! Why on earth would I receive less money? If any, pay me more.
Obviously, this only applies to a few jobs out there (e.g., software engineering).
