What does that mean? Five weeks of retreat a year? Who pays for that?
I wouldn’t take the 90/10 literally. It probably is closer to 1 week per quarter at an offsite event.
Eugh. Makes me so glad I'm working at a professional company and not one of those tech bro firms. We have an annual conference you can attend either in person or remotely, and it spans like two days. Doing some random corporate BS four weeks of the year just so your CEO can pretend to be some sort of popstar sounds abysmal to me.
i totally agree with the sentiment. my last job was a "tech bro firm". that entire attitude and working environment is stacked in favor of extroverts. as an introvert, that shit is extremely difficult and frustrating.
