Fintech startup Slice rolls out 3-day work week

Credit card challenger startup Slice has rolled out a 3-day work week in a move to explore the future of work, under its “Code in 3” initiative, said a statement issued today.

Under the programme, Slice will hire full-time engineers, product managers, as well as designers to work on the company’s major projects such as decentralised products, stocks and alternative investments, and BNPL, etc. The team will be offered competitive salaries and will have the flexibility to opt for working from anywhere. Even with working hours limited to 20 - 25 hours every week, there will be no cut in employee benefits offered.

“There is a large group of driven and competitive people who are looking to work on projects which interest them, but find it difficult to balance it with their standard jobs. Our vision is to provide the team with the flexibility and means to innovate. This programme will not only provide broader exposure to different technologies but also give people a chance to broaden their work portfolios. Our aim is to bring in at least 100 folks in the next year with a projection of hiring 1,000 team members over the next five years under the programme," said Rajan Bajaj, founder and CEO, Slice.


Currently, the company has 450 employees and is ramping up hiring for the next year.
