In seriousness, I get startups require 7-day weeks - from the founders, who have enough equity that makes it worth it. I did that, for years, with a family. It was rough and we never exited, but I don’t regret it since I believed in what I was building. But if you’re VC funded and saying you need 7 day work weeks from employees you’re giving fraction of percent of equity, you’re exploiting people. Hire more people, make a bigger ask.
As I said I regret nothing about my experience in the startup world, but I’m so happy to be at a company that truly respects work life balance.
