Expensify sends the whole company somewhere remote for one month each year. Last year they did Vietname - initial discussion at http://blog.expensify.com/2011/10/25/expensify-offshore-2011-vietnam/ http://blog.expensify.com/2011/10/25/expensify-offshore-2011... and full details at http://blog.expensify.com/tag/vietnam/ http://blog.expensify.com/tag/vietnam/ Thailand this year: http://blog.expensify.com/2012/09/28/expensify-offshore-2012-thailand/ http://blog.expensify.com/2012/09/28/expensify-offshore-2012... I have no connection to Expensify other than reading their blog which I originally saw posted on HN. This adds a second datapoint showing the principle working for more than one company. Another interesting approach is on Rand Fishkin's blog where Seomoz will reimburse employees up to $3,000 each in vacaction expenses. The message is consistent - a change of scenery either as a group or individuals is benefical to the company.
