You know about 996, right?
- josephcsible 5y agoI thought 996 was a mainland China thing.
- MangoCoffee 5y agothis is not 996. its common in the semis industry even in the US. when i was younger i used to work in a Motorola fab at Austin, TX. you work couple days in a week like 3 days and overnight into the morning then for the rest of week you are off. this got nothing to do with 996 or whatever. its the norm in the semis industry.
- dehrmann 5y agoMy comment was in response to "12 hour days. Sounds pretty dystopian." Maybe it's dystopian, but a worse version has been standard practice in China for a while.
