As someone who works 32 hours over 4 days in my main role at a startup I fully support that this should become the industry norm. We're also remote first, support side hustles and people can choose their own hours and I think we're genuinely building what should be a Harvard Business case study for the future of work. Pretty much every Monday I'm excited to hit the ground running and do important work. Building a world where this is the norm is a cause worth fighting for that unlocks time for people to change the world in other ways.
That sounds like an absolute dream company to work for! I tell every company I interview with that I'll need to continue some bit of freelancing — it's to safeguard myself against "difficult business decisions."
I hope more companies this examples & pilot 4-day work weeks with increasing frequency, we really need that extra day to ourselves.
