A growing number of smaller companies are adopting a four-day workweek. Now the results of a recent trial at Microsoft suggest it could work even for the biggest businesses.

Pay scaled linearly. But it’s still a “pay raise” because lower income means lower taxes 😂
At my company, there are quite a few PMs actually also doing 4 day work weeks - or workations. It’s quite nice. I like that the company isn’t like “you live to work for us” but instead they’re like “Hey, here are some nice things you can work on - but we know, that work is simply part of life and needs balance.”
Really appreciate that.
I initially started the reduction, as I realised, that pro-actively speaking, I think that my current work “deserves” 24h of my week rather than full 40h. It’s just not so important for my life. And I’m happy to be able to proactively make this decision.
If you’re interested, I can tell you about the company via DM 😄
That sounds like a great approach to take!
That’s a good mindset to practice! I’ll have to keep it in mind. Thanks for taking the time to respond!
Edit: I did try to DM you but it keeps kicking me to my subscription page
Happy to hear your appreciate it 😊 Pro-activity is a game changer for life.
I sent you a dm via the web interface. did you receive?
I’m only mobile for kbin at the moment so it doesn’t appear I can receive them (and setting my browser to desktop mode doesn’t change anything). But thank you so much for reaching out! I’ll try to get my hands on a non-work computer and check it out.
Hm… I can’t send you a message even after making an account on kbin.social 🤔
There is no way to send a message.
I think it’s best if you send me a DM from a Lemmy account at lemmy.world, lemmy.ca, feddit.de, etc.
@swnt done and done. Thanks for following up!
