I think this is a smart move. Three days holiday is long enough to do something, especially if you add a weekend. They will feel better and work better. Money would be forgotten sooner.

In a rapidly growing business, there is often plenty of money (either from sales, or from investors banging on the door), but a shortage of employee time (hiring people takes time, training people takes time).

Giving holiday as a gift may therefore cost the company more than it appears on the surface.
