It’s ironic when some companies try to espouse supposed work-life balance when the best thing a company can do for work-life balance would be to make you work 8 hours tops.
Consider a company where you end up spending 10 hours per day for work and work-related stuff (including team-building activities):
6 hours – sleep
1 hour – prepare for work
1 hour – go to work
10 hours – work
1 coffee breaks + lunch
1 hour – go home
4 hours – remainder
4 hours, 4 measly hours for your family, your kids, your friends, yourself. How is that balance?
