Yes. They’re called “pintention” days, because internally everything is a pun on pin. They’re given randomly. Even though they’re free days off, people complain that they only were given one or two weeks notice and therefore couldn’t plan anything for a three day weekend. “No good deed goes unpunished”
we have a rest and vest culture so this is never needed.
Can I ask does this mean this's a bad (or still good) place for new grad (to grow)? Thank you!
I think either the culture is on the toxic side or on the R&V side doesn’t correlate with growth opportunities much. The key for growth is within team mentorship and having a supportive manager who is willing to help.
Some teams also have their own monthly day off We also have company wide office closure (last week of Dec, few days ard May). This is on top of unlimited vacation.
Yep, most of my org does has a monthly day off
Which orgs have monthly day off? I'll transfer there
Yes but they are just randomly given out 1-2 weeks in advance and they are 1 day company wide
