Amazon is piloting a programme in which entire teams will work a 30-hour week for 75% of a full-time worker's salary. CEO Jeff Bezos said that the traditional full-time schedule "may not be a 'one size fits all' model." The programme will trial teams working on tech products within the human resources division, working Last year from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., with additional flexi hours, and the option to transition to full-time. Monday to Thursday, a New York Times article slammed the company's work ethic which encouraged employees to work up to 80 hours a week without holidays.
