Agreed. I work at a highly successful small company with a reputation for being grindy, and what that looks like in reality is probably 55 hours a week of largely focused productive work: typical core hours are 9-6:45ish, and you work longer a day or two a week and put in the odd evening or weekend hour. It’s hard to imagine working 9-9 every day
- epolanski 1y ago55 hours is still insane. I could only do it in a highly growing startup as an early engineer, with the expectation I'm out in few years.
- citizenpaul 1y agoReally? Ive yet to encounter a job that expected less than 55hr as general minimum.
- epolanski 1y agoI don't really like the comment I'm about to write but get a life and set foot outside that bubble. It's also cringe how this kind of comments on "how long one works" come from north americans. It's not cool.
- citizenpaul 1y agoYeah your comment says a lot about what kind of person you are. Not a good one. I've not had much choice in life as to what kind of work I can get. I was not born with rich parents and could only afford a non prestigious Uni. I absolutely hate that this kind of exploitation is common (in USA). Its nice that some people like you have a spoiled life and can dump on the less fortunate though.
