The phrase means that something isn't a holiday. Despite linking to an explanation of it, the grandparent does not seem to be using it correctly.

To take a break from a FANG or other corporate job, and do a low-key start-up thing with the gang, and greenfield some code instead of bug fixing maintenance work, while working remote from a beach in Hawaii or somewhere sounds like a holiday to me!

Exactly. Working from a beach isn't for me (too much sunlight and sand, and "i could be surfing :-(") but yes the rest of it. Especially the deep work of not working in a typical business.
