    Don’t understand the negative response, all devs are being compensated for it and being given extra leave

      it’s about consent. asking people to volunteer is fine, but mandating it isn’t. People have lives, kids, obligations, which might be worth more then two days of time in lieu.

          So what do they do with the kids at the weekend when nursery’s are closed?

          CIG could have hired more people previously…

          Why do they need to work these two weekends on a project that has been ongoing for years?
