I do this where I work (in higher ed). I work 4 tens and have Wednesday off. It's like having a lot of two-day weeks with alternating 1- and 2-day weekends. Also, if I need a Friday or Monday off I can change which day I take off for that week. What sold me on it was "never work more than two days in a row unless you choose to".
I see a lot of criticism of the 10-hour days, but in a mixed environment I like it. With the hours I chose I have a 1 1/2 hour work time in the morning where most everyone else isn't in yet that is very productive for me. I also have an extra half-hour after the time most people leave to do the same. My work is more project oriented, but I still have inconvenient meetings with small windows for work throughout the normal work day.
