Can you get fired for working too many hours?

I don’t work hourly. Salary.

Depends on how much work gets done, not how much time was spent

If you never go home, that’s suspect.

From a production standpoint? Or taking on too much?

It’s about output, not input.

No one will ever fire you for contributing too much. If you work too many hours and have very little output, that's pretty suspicious.

Probably if someone else can finish your tasks in less time.

For starters, no one will fire you over this on a whym. But, if you are in a senior position and supposed to role model wlb than you might be approached about this by your tl. There's also a chance that you are trying to make up for lack of prioritization skills or low velocity and this will burn you out gradually.

If you work too many hours you will become grumpy and will be ‘that guy’ in the office that always throw snide remarks, and feed on negativity.
