Patagonia Employees Can Stay Home On Thanksgiving Day

When asked why the store decided not to join some that have opened on the holiday itself for Black Friday shopping, the spokesperson responded, "It's a holiday - we're closed!" The company takes time off pretty seriously . It offers parents of both genders two months of paid parental leave, lets workers set their own hours while locking its doors at 8 p.m. on weekdays to keep them from stretching too long, grants two-month paid sabbaticals for employees to work on environmental projects, and everyone takes vacations.
