Barely anyone in Europe is working more than 40 (or 42) hours.
- gcommer 4y agoThis is a common thought but it certainly hasnt been the case at any of the bay area startups or faangs I have worked at or interviewed for. Always 40 hrs. Are there super heavy hustle places? Probably, but most places realize more time is not linearly more output for creative/knowledge work. (Similarly, the internet would have you think anywhere offering "unlimited vacation" is a scam but I used and loved it)
