There's 2 types of people in startups: problem solvers and problem creators :)
Not having a clear goal in mind, not leading by example and using time in the office as a benchmark for progress are all red flags.
Meaningful progress is not about how long you can work, it's about how effective you can be in leveraging limited resources. Problem solvers know that death marches are counterproductive in the end. The big question is how to work smarter and solve more problems using less, i.e. how to not die.
To the downvoters: ultimately the market doesn't care how hard you work. It's brutal but it's true.
