[quote=Anonymous]I think this is going to be very difficult to gauge during an interview. Questions like "How is the office culture?" ALWAYS result in enthusiastic responses about collegiality, family friendliness, support, and rah-rahs. Similarly, walkarounds will reveal nothing except the taste of the person whose desk is being viewed or the policy of the company on doo-dads. I think you need to assume that you can hardly ever take sick leave and that there will be heavy competition for vacations during school vacation time. As for staying late on a moment's notice, that should hopefully be rare in any office unless you are in law. What exactly are you doing? Of course there is a time of the year when the office is particularly busy.[/quote]
