Shut down the office: One company’s vacation solution

Published Updated 4 Min Read

Employees at PwC no longer need to ration their PTOs for major holidays when the entire office is closed.

That’s because the global accounting firm is experimenting with company-wide shutdowns to enhance its vacation benefits. PwC implemented the first of these shutdowns four years ago, when the company closed its office the last weeks of December through New Year’s Day. This year will be the first time the company shuts down for three summer holidays: Memorial Day, Independence Day and Labor Day.
