Luckily I work where there's expectation that you should have a healthy work/life balance. I've been in interview situations where we actively throw away people who seem not to have a good work/life balance
Being in an environment that supports throwing away people hardly seems lucky.
People who want to work, work and work is not good to have as colleagues and employees. They will stress put their colleagues and get burned out. With a healthy work-life balance, and 35 hours work week, people are more happy and less sick
Well, I am not defending overworking. I simply felt your wording was expressing behavior and ideas that seem rather harsh.
