Personally, I think this depends on the job itself as well. I have done both of these options. I did option 2 for about 3 years - I worked 2 11.5 days, one 10.5, one 6. Honestly it was beyond exhausting. Everyone always said that it must be fantastic to have a whole day off each week. It was, but most of that day was just resting from how tired I was. Currently, I work one 10 hour day, 2 9 hour days, an 8 hour day, and a 4 hour day Friday. I find this much more manageable for me. It’s also pretty flexible so if I wanted to only work an 8 hour day one day, I can just add those hours to Friday.
What would you rather do? (Please read)
1. Work 8 hour days, 5 days a week. However, this schedule is very flexible, and you can work longer on some days and less on others if you choose to. Often get to get off early on Fridays because you’ve already reached your 40 hours for the week. Can get off early if needed and just make up for it by working longer another day that week if you don’t want to use PTO. If you need to request a whole day off, you only have to use 8 hours of PTO. You can telework 3 days per week, in office 2 days per week.
2. Work 10 hour days, 4 days per week. The day off each week changes every month and is decided by your supervisor. So you will have an entire weekday off. If you need to request a whole day off work, you have to use 10 hours of PTO. Start and end times are less flexible. You can telework 2 days per week, in office 2 days per week.
