My company (Big4) has 2 versions of part-time.

If >=50% time, you get full benefits, and salary/bonus/stock is pro-rated at whatever percentage you work. Due to the way the stock vests for part-time, I've heard this ends up being ~10% more pay cut than time cut (80% time == ~70% pay).

<50% you lose a lot of the core benefits (healthcare, 401k, etc.), but I doubt anyone really does this except people who are basically retired.

But +1, big fan of companies that support part-time. I think most companies view it as a benefit basically like parental leave, etc., so it's a way of recruiting/retaining talent and are willing to eat some of the fixed cost.


+1, reminds me of Destroy All Software


Yea, he means Cmd + Number I believe. In Chrome Cmd + 1 goes to the first tab, Cmd + 2 to the second and so on. So it can be somewhat annoying for someone who frequently uses those shortcuts to change tab.


Sure -- right now, Ctrl+Number works as an alternative, so considering getting rid of Cmd+Number all together.


Right, I should have been more clear. And yes, I was using Chrome.
