I disagree - I think it's the future of work. Our company mission is to help people earn what they want. For some, this means working extra - for instance, to pay off student debt. However, among contractors on our platform whose primary source of income is contracting (as opposed to a full-time job), over 90% work fewer than 40 hours per week. This means that they earn what they want, and choose to work less.

As we talk about things like universal basic income, I think we also need to rethink the idea of a workweek. The contractors on Moonlight are not junior - 48% have 10+ years experience in technology (and 76% have 5+ years). I think it's a sign that what people expect in terms of work is changing.
