I worked this schedule for many years (not in tech, "skilled" labour) and it's amazing. This was a 7 day a week operation and it worked quite well in terms of crossover here too. Each person had a fixed schedule but the day of the week for each person would vary so there'd never be a full "shift change over", so to speak, but always some overlap between the shifts and it helped with information exchange greatly. The guy working Monday-Thursday would overlap with people starting their weeks from Tuesday to Thursday, for example, so there was always a "working knowledge" of what was going on.
It worked well on the management side of things too, but with an actual "changeover", as you'd have a Monday-Thursday supervisor and another Thursday-Sunday supervisor, with one day a week of overlap however that Sunday-Monday changeover didn't have an overlap (although there was a lot of OT on this job so it did frequently happen).
