What happens if you start a job at MBB and just work 40 hrs/wk? Would you get fired within a month?

?? It’s not like there’s some requirement to work 60+ hours a week. As long as you get all your work done - whether that takes 30 or 50 or 70 hours a week - you’re fine (and yes I’ve experienced the full spectrum of the above and am still here)

While exceptions apply, you won’t even come close to finishing your work and will meet a very quick end

Yeah, but I would say the effectiveness is dubious at best. Teams which care often don’t get there, and those that don’t care ignore it

Been on the beach a while, literally working like 10h a week max.

If with 40 hours you mean that you will tell your team "Sorry guys about the big deadline but its 6pm and im gonna go home to watch tv, but you have fun completing my part on top of your own work"
yes you will get concerns and then be asked to leave in time
