The interesting thing about a culture where the long work day is more common than not is that it starts becoming an expectation even though it isn't codified in any rule. So for example you'd be less likely to get a raise or promotion than a person who puts in more hours than the required. So even though you're not abusing the company you get less benefits for doing the amount of work you're getting paid for.

- matwood 15y agoSo for example you'd be less likely to get a raise or promotion than a person who puts in more hours than the required. If person A does more work than person B who should be promoted and paid more? Some people get more work done than other people because they are smarter. Others get more work done because they simply put in more hours. Is there really much difference between the two?
- makmanalp 15y agoIn principle, I agree wholly. In practice, I think hours often gets used as a substitute metric for amount of work done or value brought. It's this substitution and the (possibly unconscious) merit given to extra hours over extra efficiency.
