about work condition and overtime... very interesting. everyone with a minimum skill in management should avoid those situations. see also architecture companies in UK, they usually don't pay overtime!!!

Public Sticky notes

Workers can maintain productivity more or less indefinitely at 40 hours per five-day workweek. When working longer hours, productivity begins to decline. Somewhere between four days and two months, the gains from additional hours of work are negated by the decline in hourly productivity. In extreme cases (within a day or two, as soon as workers stop getting at least 7-8 hours of sleep per night), the degradation can be abrupt.
