[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What are you talking about?  Are you yourself high right now?  People on the West coast work more or less like people on the East coast.

If you think that life out there is a cake-walk, then consider moving to one of these "fictional" companies you describe.  DC has an abundant and stable job market.[/quote]

OP here; no completely sober. College juniors are finishing up their summer internships and getting their full time offers and I visited my nephew in the middle of the summer and it is crazy what established places (so not a start up without any hr or anything) let you do at work as long as you get your work done.

I wonder if places that have afternoon/evening beers at work on fridays now will let people have a joint or two if they would rather have that than the beer or two. [/quote]

My advice, OP, for the sake of your nephew's future at the company you have described -- absolutely DO NOT let anyone goad you into naming the company, your nephew, or otherwise giving any more details than you already have.  Remember, the NSA is watching.  :shock:[/quote]

i already said it is a company with a market cap of 100B..its not hard to find out a list of west coast tech firms with MC's around 100B or higher. No i'm not going to name the company.

I just found it completely crazy....so different from the work culture around here. I'm not saying people out there don't grind or work hard...they do and put in lots of hours.....but in terms of 'etiquette' its almost like anything goes.

Yes, I've heard that the conference room orgies are particularly hard to stomach.  That, and the bring your open-marriage-others to work day make me so happy that I live and work here in DC rather than on the West coast.[/quote]
