Summer Fridays: We work hard. Summers should be cherished. From the Friday before Memorial Day to the Friday before Labor Day, employees should use the second half of their working day to relax and enjoy the summer months.

To support employees through difficult times, whether recent or in the past, we offer a benefit of up to five hours of confidential grief counseling with Breaktime’s certified grief specialist. This benefit is designed to provide employees with confidential, professional support and coping strategies as they navigate loss and bereavement. End of Year Break: We are dedicated to our work, and we recognize the significance of reflecting on our yearly accomplishments. During the time between Christmas and New Year, we encourage our employees to take a well-deserved break to relax and recharge.
