Do you think the Macintosh was made on Unlimited PTO? How about Microsoft? Facebook? Absolutely not. Sure you can ask for WLB, but don't get upset when all the tech around you starts failing. No wonder recent video games feel so "phoned-in" and glitchy. Greatness comes from hard work. Blood, sweat, and tears.
Outside of government jobs, there’s no true 9-5 jobs. It’s true for all professions.
😂. Looks like Meta is the only job you have had
I have 20 YOE and have never worked more than 8 hours a day on a regular basis.
You won’t be thinking of the life force you gave away to someone else’s company on your deathbed.
I'm sure Steve Jobs was absolutely thinking about that.
@GitHub why go home after work. stay and sleep at office and work weekends too. make github best product ever and lead by example
And then one day you’ll look back and wonder where your life went.
It went into creation and making the world a better place.
Creating a useless product once every three years (I'm not a PM or tech lead)
Video games are probably the worst example for calling out WLB having effect. It’s the impractical deadlines that keeps the video games glitchy, the WLB is still bad.
Agree or not Comfort zone kills innovation!!
Maybe if you own the product and it’s your vision. Some people just want a good paycheck to focus on their own visions; and WLB offers this.
I totally agree!
op do u kno what a scam is? thought this was a clever satire post but knowing blind u prob srs
I’m going to live only once, so my priority is peace and happiness and time with people I love, not “innovation” or “greatness”, but different people have different priorities and there’s no right/wrong way to live
I totally agree with you. Kindly go to your work-desk and resume your work, instead of wasting your time in writing this kind of “insightful post”. Because you can’t make a Microsoft or Macintosh by making this kind of post.
TC ?
