Great people, WLB isn’t great but I rarely have to work on the weekends. People usually respect your time after 530 unless there is a client deadline.

I do work after 5:30 I meant no one really bothers me or gives me additional tasks after 5:30 unless there’s something pressing but I still have to finish my work so I rather stay late on week days so I don’t have to work a ton on the weekend.
