[quote=Anonymous]There was an article about how hiring managers love to hire “insecure overachievers” who will work themselves to the bone working 70-hour weeks only getting paid for 40 hours and I think that personality type is RAMPANT in DC. When my DH was a fed he stayed late/worked unpaid overtime out of a sense of duty, now he’s mid level in big tech with a boss who’s a parent who encourages everyone to take all the parental leave they’re offered/WFH a few days a week/work flex hours when they have family emergencies etc and he feels like his team accomplishes more working normal hours than his dept did in the gov’t. Downtime boosts workplace productivity and I love that my husband is home every day at 4:30 and never misses doing bedtime.[/quote]
