  I've of two minds when it comes to this sort of culture. When I was younger, I loved this sort of thing (see my comment below), and I also spent 10-12 hours a day at the office. It did foster excellent relationships, however. These days, I prefer to limit my time in the office because I'd be with my family, preferably outside. EDIT: This makes it sound like I hate my job or something. I don't. I enjoy my work. I simply enjoy my family more. I'd prefer to go to the office, work hard for 8 hours, then come home.
