I'm at Stripe and my WLB is fine fwiw. It's busy, but my managers and team do not encourage overwork.

It's 5pm Friday here and I'm about to shut down my work laptop until 8am Monday.

I feel like that's not great WLB by today's standards. 8-5 is 9 hours a day (instead of 8), and on a Friday no less, when many folks at other companies easily clock out by 3 to begin their weekend early.
