Combine work and vacation as Atlassian IT consultant at STAGIL
[HR]
Would you like to work under a palm tree in Spain or in a cozy cafe in Athens? STAGIL Supports Workations from a variety of places!
Workation is one of the Perks you get when working for a remote company. As long as your internet connection is stable, there are plenty of locations that you can work from!
David, our marketing colleague recently came back from a one-week workation in Greece. Here are some of his impressions:
-
SushmitaWhy did you decide to go for a workation?
-
DavidI have been traveling a lot during my studies, It's quite important for me to change scenery every now and then! Quite a few of my friends live outside of Germany. Catching up with my friends was another reason.
-
SushmitaWhy did you decide to go to greece?
-
DavidI live in Hamburg and the weather here gets pretty sad during autumn season. I wanted to get some sunlight and postpone the winter a little.
-
SushmitaDid you manage to get some work done during your workation?
-
DavidAbsolutely. I decided to work only 7 hours per day but these 7 hours were as productive as they would have been at home. One thing that i missed was my big screen so for my next workation, i will probably bring a second screen.
-
SushmitaWas it difficult to reduce your working hours?
-
DavidThere are basically two ways to go about this. You can either temporarily adjust your target hours or you can do what i did which is to work a little bit more in the weeks prior to and after the workation so that you end up with the same amount of total hours.
-
SushmitaWas it complicated to organize?
-
DavidNot at all! I just had to raise a workation request that was approved by the responsible person in less than a day. There are some limitations on how many days you can do this per year and which countries are acceptable but the process is just a few clicks.
-
SushmitaDid you enjoy your time there?
-
DavidAthens is absolutely stunning and the weather couldn't have been better. I had an amazing time and i can't wait to do this again.
