I love making my clients profitable, which in turn pays my salary. So whatever it takes within reason.

Not more than 30

All 60

20 at most ….

Lately 10-15

I’d guess 15~20 of high productivity time. Then there’s time spent on emails and meetings.

25

20-30 depending on the week

By productive, do you mean that I provided an above-market return to my capitalist masters, or do you mean that I helped other people and living beings?

20

About 50% of working time, so about 20 hours out of 40.
Tbh, I think the 50% I use to cool down actually makes the other 50% much more productive so it's misleading saying I'm productive just half the time.
I may be stressed alot because I coded and reverse engineered for 3 consecutive hours, if I dont slow down the next hour I would just do messes, low quality work by the end of the day and suboptimal team work.

This last week 10

I currently work as an APM at a FAANG company but recently received an offer to join an MBB. I’m very excited about the role but didn’t realize I’d need to take a pay cut when I applied (~100k base + ~20k bonus + ~60k equity vs. 90k base + 10-20k bonus). Considering that I currently work 40-60 hours/week, I’ll be making significantly less per hour at the MBB. I’m very interested in the opportunity but also don’t want to make a poor financial decision early in my career. Thank you for your time!
