This is a common thought but it certainly hasnt been the case at any of the bay area startups or faangs I have worked at or interviewed for. Always 40 hrs.
Are there super heavy hustle places? Probably, but most places realize more time is not linearly more output for creative/knowledge work.
(Similarly, the internet would have you think anywhere offering "unlimited vacation" is a scam but I used and loved it)
