While I take issue ith the "deserves" comment floating around the top of the page, in general the article is spot-on. For the most part, extended periods of high volumes of work indicate a project is either under-staffed or poorly managed. Sprints and pushes now and again are exceptions -- there is nothing inherently wrong with needing to put in a long week or two, even a month or two, irregularly in order to get a feature out that just needs to be built. But extended continual work definitely does sap the creativity and stress every relationship a person has outside of the office.
