This means 90% of the year is spent on remote work, and the remaining 10% is dedicated to employee off-site events.

What does that mean? Five weeks of retreat a year? Who pays for that?

I wouldn’t take the 90/10 literally. It probably is closer to 1 week per quarter at an offsite event.

which is not that uncommon at a tech company.
