84 fucking hours. If I worked 12 hours a day, every day, I wouldn't hit 84 hours unless I literally never had a single day off! That dude can eat my entire ass...

recently i started telling candidates right in the first interview that greptile offers no work-life-balance, typical workdays start at 9am and end at 11pm, often later, and we work saturdays, sometimes also sundays. i emphasize the environment is high stress, and there is no tolerance for poor work.

The fact that he ever gets through that interview without the candidate laughing themself right out of his office is just baffling.
