Novartis HQ Year Round Summer Fridays

Why does management allow a substantial number of employees not to come in on Friday or work a full day? You can't get any work done and it's essentially a ghost town across the East Hanover campus! I'm amazed at the work ethic and culture that Sr Leadership seems to endorse.
 








As if the Swiss weren't taking off 10 weeks/year in addition to getting comp time for every minute over 8 hours and carrying over months of vacation every year. Try having a meeting in August, the last 2 weeks of December or the first week of January.

Most people in the US try to work from home on Fridays.

the max you can get off if you're on the clock is 8 weeks/year. that includes the max allowable comp. time.
 








Hardly anyone is in the office for NVD in Cambridge on Fridays except lower level staff or contractors. Its a high paying joke job for a lot of people that know they can't do this type of stuff in other industries
