- ed25519FUUU 5y agoI love this idea. I once worked a 4-10 schedule, and having a weekday off was such an incredibly nice thing.

Flexible work weeks is a real, actually competitive advantage these companies can have over FANG to attract talent. Best of luck to them, and I’ll definitely be considering this when it comes time.
