How to treat Internet companies working overtime?

It is common to work overtime in the internet circle. For young people who have just entered the industry, they can learn more. Doing more work and projects will make their technical life more complete. When you get older, you will choose a company with less work intensity to continue your technical career. With the gradual maturity of the development of the Internet industry, the working environment of the Internet industry will gradually improve in the future, and the work pressure and work cycle of IT personnel will be reduced. Judging from the development trend of the whole industry, the future development space is still relatively large. But don't work overtime for the sake of overtime, especially the so-called "forced overtime". Only by working overtime purposefully can we achieve something.

Internet companies have many projects. Internet companies are different from ordinary software development companies. Internet companies are often pushed forward by the market and cannot stop at all. The continuous improvement of user experience will increase the workload, the continuous development of product line will increase the workload, management upgrade will increase the workload and so on. In short, the projects of Internet companies are always emerging one after another.

? Internet companies have a short cycle. The products of Internet companies often need to race against time. When a new direction opens, all Internet companies will race against time. The time cycle of many projects is often calculated in days, and the adjustment of some functions is even calculated in hours, while the development cycle of traditional software development companies is often calculated in months.

The vast majority of internet companies are flat management, unlike traditional enterprises, where there are many layers between bosses and ordinary employees. From this perspective, top-down management and control are easier. In this state, the intensity of any distribution and work execution is much greater. In fact, the product managers of many companies are supervisors sent by bosses, trying to produce more things in a short time. The intensity of overtime can be imagined.

In this increasingly competitive world, overtime is becoming more and more common, and almost no industry or occupation does not need overtime. Of course, now the form of overtime is not just sitting in the office. You may also need to use mobile devices to handle work on your way to and from work or on holidays. This kind of invisible overtime has become a common form in current work.
