The last few years have seen much discussion over how fundamentally the world of work has changed following COVID-19, unfortunately this talk doesn't seem to have resulted in significant impact to core working practices. In light of this and the increased focus of younger team members on quality of life over burn-out we thought that we might try changing how Periscope works. For seven months between September 2023 and March 2024 Periscope ran a four-day-week trial, the results can be downloaded here.
The trial saw us formalise the non-working day to Friday allowing space for other pursuits and professional training. In general it has been a success and we've decided to bake it in for the current financial year running to 2025.
