This may cut against what some other are saying, but I've found larger tech companies to be very reasonable about the 40 hr work weeks. As you stated, you've had experience all at web startups. Startups tend to encourage the "work-all-day-every-day" mentality whereas (at least in my experience) larger tech companies will let you do your 40 hrs. Doesn't necessarily have to be a strictly tech company. A large corp of any size that has a decent tech department might suit you well, but they may be less open to the long breaks. My experience has been the large companies I've worked at (telco, bank, and largeish internet company) have never encouraged me to work crazy hours. YMMV, good luck!
