We observe a company-wide shutdown between December 25 and January 1 each year.

This is a dedicated time to step away, recharge, and reset before the year ahead.

Recharge week is designed to support rest while maintaining business continuity. Thoughtful planning, fair coverage, and high-agency flexibility are essential to making it successful.

Who is eligible

• All teammates are encouraged to fully disconnect during this time.
• This is paid company leave and is not logged as PTO.
• We ask teams to plan ahead to enable true downtime wherever possible.

Schedule

• In 2026, the company shutdown will be from Friday, Dec 25 - Sunday, Jan 3.

Planning expectations

To make this successful, teams should plan ahead:

• Avoid scheduling launches, deadlines, and non-essential meetings during this week/ shortly after
• Set out-of-office messages
• Document escalation paths

Protect the week by:

• Avoiding non-urgent messages
• Respecting offline time
• Defaulting to async where possible
