Expectation of working 15-20 hours in a day - why people set it and why do people meet this? Especially when minuscule raises are awarded.

Different reasons - some people are insecure or scared, or others are workaholic etc.

it's a culture of manufactured urgency, set by leaders who confuse hours worked with value created. you meet it because in a hyper-competitive market, staying visible feels safer than being efficient. they're not rewarding your work; they're rewarding your availability.

Yes. The person who’s available day and night and on weekends- who completely forgoes personal life is rewarded. But why don’t people adopt other mechanisms for reward?

Based on my experience of observing my people, I have some of my friends and seniors who are just naturally motivated, they are into learning and building things right from college days and now that they are making a lot of money.. still they are the same. I also ask them many a times, all they say is "I just love it.. it feels good" but its like 12-15 hrs.

Rest for 8-10 hrs ppl, they are like I dont want to be a nerd, I want to enjoy other things in life as well while dedicatedly working in given time frame.

Thanks. have you noticed anything remarkable about the career trajectories of these two different types of people? Like only the one putting in more hours rises faster than the one who puts in 8-10 hours. Case in point - the quality of work is same for both but more hours contribute to more output.

What happens to those who wish to maintain 8-10 hours with high quality work?

Nobody expects anyone to work 15-20 hrs a day. They expect them to stay in office and be available. This expectations could be to stop you physically from starting a side business, or the founder/manager is struggling to do his role.and he wants you to struggle as well. A founder feels the employee is overpaid hence his time belongs to me first or a manager who feels he can hide is incompetence by showing his managers that he is making the team work 15-20 hrs.

They don't expect you to work. They expect you to feel the pain.
