Yes, they explicitly brag about this in their LinkedIn feed:

> Forward Deployed Engineers in the wild. We said "go relax." They brought their laptops onto a duck float. Because when you're helping customers manage supplier communications semi-autonomously and speed up America's defense industrial base, "break" is a relative term. This is the energy.

(I don’t make a habit of checking that site but happy to make an exception to answer this post’s ‘did I interpret correctly?’.)

You get to work from home two days a week: Saturday and Sunday.

I got a recruiting email recently for a job that had 5 days onsite, but SATURDAY was work from home, listed like it was a perk.

It’s wild out there.

The founders look like they can’t be out of their early-mid 20’s… this stinks of a frat-house 3 AM convo that made it to the next morning.

Seems more like a cult than a job. Hopefully the equity is like… a lot.

I mean, for 0.15-0.20% and a top end salary of $200k living in SF that sounds like a great opportunity!

Yes and? If this is not appealing to you, don't apply. But for some the travel and being at different customer sites is energizing and fun.
