I'm new to Visa and listening to the global all-staff today. They mentioned Visa Fridays flexibility - what exactly is this, do we work half day?

I’m new here but from my understanding(so anyone else feel free to clarify) there are no meetings on Fridays after 1pm and starting soon for the summer it will be half days on Friday so you can log off around 1pm on Fridays since people will be on vacation, etc….

Yep half day

Sorry what is this about? I am planning to join Visa. Can someone please explain?

It's basically company's way of creating a work life balance. It's not an official half holiday. It's more of no meetings Fridays and you can log off early if you want to. But if you have some task scheduled or pending you are still expected to do those even if it's on Friday

Is this office/country-specific? Or does this apply to all Visa offices?

Yes it's Globally

Yes, it's half day Fridays during the summer. If you don't have immediate deliverables, you can log off at 1 pm.

When do these(summer Fridays) start and end? (E.g., how many weeks of the year are considered summer?)
