Extremely impressive but is it really sustainable in the long run? I personally do not think that working 16hr days is good for you in the long run. It is not healthy.
What use is he if he gets burned out in a year or two? Not much I would wager. Sure one might argue that this pattern of long working hours is crucial in the first few years of a company.
The question if he does so much more in 16 hours than he could have done in say ten or twelve? I doubt you can remain very efficient 16 hours per day.
- goatcurious 15y agoWonder what the bankers would say to that...
- Chrono 15y agoI'm sure they would disagree with me but to be fair, will you make good decisions if you don't sleep enough and work 16 hours a day? I'm thinking sure, if this goes on for a short period of time but most people will eventually burn out. Many can, of course, handle such working conditions but it can hardly be considered healthy in the long run.
- mbesto 15y agoMany would simply say "I'll do it for 4-5 years and then make some other junior analyst do it for me when I'm a manager". It's a pump-dump mentality internally you know...
