GitHub taking company wide wellbeing days July 5-9 and 6 Fridays in Jul/Aug
- Hamuko 5y agoHow much vacation days do GitHub employees get?
- CaliforniaKarl 5y agoIf you believe Glassdoor, it's "unlimited vacation time". Which makes things like this all the more important.
- timkam 5y agoDoesn't it make things like this all the more meaningless? We know that "unlimited vacation time" can, given a competitive company culture mean "essentially no vacation time". First, isn't this then the same with wellbeing days(sure, it's the whole company that's supposed to be off, but who knows how it will actually work in practice). Second, wouldn't the first step be to give all employees 30 days of annual vacation and enforce that they actually take them? (This is what many organizations do in Europe...)
- mnd999 5y agoPerhaps it’ll give them a chance to reflect on what they’ve done well and what is a bad implementation of a terrible idea.
- ocdtrekkie 5y agoAnd GitHub has publicly declared the best time to really annoy GitHub with a zero day. \o/
