I’m having a hard time believing that a large number of people are doing nothing but slacking off at these companies. When people say their tech company has a “chill” culture normally they mean they don’t have to work overtime or during the weekends. Or they don’t get super stressed about hard deadlines. Not that they work 30 minutes a day. I worked for 2 big tech companies that have the “chill” culture label and never met somebody that was literally doing nothing or didn’t have a project assigned. I’m sure there are exceptions but that’s it. It’s not like in the TV show where they go and hang in the roof all day.
- systemicdanna 4y agoA very large number of people do slack off at these companies. Some engineers code only a few hours a week. They do attend meetings and such, but the actual task delivery timeline is very relaxed.

I don’t think it’s like in the tv shows or in consulting companies where you can spend months waiting for a project and actually doing nothing.
