i'm not sure about that whole team bandi thing but if you want a well paying job in the USA you better expect that you will be working late and working weekends.

That is absolutely bs. Read my post above.

i'd actually say your post is BS.  performance is always constantly evaluated and putting in a 35-40 hour week when everyone around you is doing more puts you at the bottom of the list of valuable assets or alternatively, at the top of the list of people fired.

Considering I've always been a top peformer in work, won tons of awards, merit $ bonuses, yearly bonuses, raises, higher than average yearly % increases... I think you're simply in the wrong company.

If the guy sitting in the next cube takes 60 hours a week to do what I do in 35, I'm not the one that will be getting a bad performance, he is, that is how things work... ( I am one of those that put the lowest hours ( I take a 1h30 lunch break every day lol) and I had the highest salary increase of my team last year...)
