I really don't get why corporations in this day and age still make people work long hours.
There have been countless studies showing that long hours lead to more mistakes, worse productivity, decreased motivation, worse health, and burnout. Workers are also more likely to leave for a job with a better work/life balance if given the chance.
It seems many corporate execs haven't gotten the message yet, and I don't know why.
