Mo Qingchen didn't hesitate to respond. "The landscape of the software and technology industry is ever-changing. It has been growing rapidly for the last few decades. The primary reason why entrepreneurs and tech companies push such hours of work is that they associate longer work hours with more work done. They think that such hours will drive results and earn more profits," he said.
His response had a ripple effect. The CEO from the start-up looked like he had a lot to say. Thankfully, he kept quiet for a while before Su Jin turned to him with a question.
"Hearing what Mr. Mo has to say, what is your thought about the issue? Are the long working hours unproductive like Mr. Mo implied?" she questioned.
