By the way, where are you the CEO of? I just want to make sure I never work there.

I fully agree with all that work-life balance thing. There's nothing to agree with it, actually, it's facts. I'd just like to add that, just because they leave office at the time stated within the contract, it doesn't mean they don't work from home. If they're devoted employees with a good sense of responsibility, when there's a lot of work and the deadlines are tight, they might take their work home. But they may need a break and a change in environments to keep being productive.

I can come and go when I please! My boss expects me to take responsibility. To step up in hard times, meet goals which I set myself and If things get out of a hand for a period of time I can ease down the moment after. I'm motivated every single day because of this and that makes me go for the long run.

Really stunned that the purported CEO doesn't get it. Where has he been living, under a rock? And this is NOT a millennial thing, it's a human being thing. I'm a baby boomer. I don't see the problem with what these employees are doing. There IS no problem except what this CEO seems to expect.
