I've been pretty lucky getting 4 days a week at 80% plus health care, at several locations. Some of them had existing policies that 80% was the least you could work and still get health care though. It may be that 3 day is pushing it too far, even at 50% instead of 60% of salary (or that may be too confusing to not have the salary be proportional). I am pretty confident that I am 95% as productive at 4 days as I am at 5 days (and I'm a fairly productive engineer). But I take 80% of salary anyway, cause it's worth it. (I also don't, even at 100%, make the 99th percentile incomes that many on HN seem to).
