My friends in France complain when they are required to work a few extra minutes more than their contract.
I don't know anything about work culture in Japan, but seeing something like this makes me wonder if Japanese companies are overworking their employees. Even though it is cool, and I totally want one!
- fgsfds028374 3y agoI visited the Japanese office of my company once and it struck me how much wasted time people put in the offices. They'd stay at the office super late, but nap for ~hours during the daytime! I think that there is a cultural pressure to show face and be physically present for a long period of time that is unrelated to actual productivity or performance.
