With digital files, I don’t think it makes more work. Different people want different things and it’s hard to know who will be reading. For my resume, I add on new items after each position or paper or new thing or whatever. So I’m just adding on new sections every few years. If I was starting fresh I probably wouldn’t write pages and pages. I agree that the first page should contain all essential information. But as for the extra pages, people only read if they have some reason.
