As an employee and a founder of a company his viewpoint seems to go against what has made the most effective teams I've worked with. You should focus on outputs not inputs when working. If someone can do the work of someone else with a fraction of the effort that person should be rewarded not punished. I don't know anyone who can work 14 hour days regularly and still be productive. If someone is doing that, it is a red flag for me to know that something is broken or that person is incompetent and needs to be let go.
