[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If I were running the show, I'd offer the following: -All the federal holidays (even Columbus Day, Veterans Day, Juneteenth) -Shut down the office DEC 24 through JAN 1 -Close the office on Good Friday and Easter Monday (when most schools are closed) -Half-days on Fridays in summer -Plus 25 days PTO (sick and vacation combined) ^^^ This would go a long way towards boosting morale and allowing people to take a vacation or just play hooky. And guess what? Productivity will not decline. [/quote] I have this at my current job, except not Good Friday/Easter Monday. It’s pretty good although I do work hard. We have high retention though.[/quote] Of course you have high retention! People would think twice before jumping ship when they have decent PTO and holidays. The Christmas week and Easter long weekend are game changers because it’s really a break when the office shuts down and emails essentially stop. [/quote]
