Spent three years there about five years ago, so my input is dated. I’ll start with “it depends”, naturally, because each team is a little different. In general, however, AU work culture is WAY more balanced. Weekends are generally sacred. Long vacations are the norm. If you’re asked to work late/on a weekend, you’re normally encouraged to take time back in the next week or two. PwC just sent all of its SA’s on a three day retreat for learning, inspiration, yoga, etc as a retention strategy. More than one person on my team took three-month leaves to drive the perimeter of the continent.

Recently started a new project, everyone’s remote, handful know each other, most know no one. Few newer hires. I want to set-up some kind of laid back happy-hour w/out work but I’m failing to find a way to make that happen with 10ish people and I am trying to avoid the mandatory fun vibe. I’d like to get to know these folks, and welcome in the newer ones, but I’m not sure how to proceed(without it being kind of lame).
