Can a Successful Startup Work Normal Hours
at 23:07
Answer
In Wil's own words:
We have so much work flexibility [at Startups.com]. We often look and feel like an anti-startup. People don't work more than 40 hours here. No one works on a weekend. No one works past six o'clock.
For decades, I was the biggest culprit of working too much, but now, I'm so proud that our our staff has a life. A lot of us now have families and kids that we can spend lots of time with them and make them a priority.
A lot of people would say: "Hey, I'm proud of the product that does this or that," but I'm proud of the company that makes the product more so than anything!
