Palantir Career Development Videos, Forum, and Q&A

I think most people will default to how many hours you put into work. But at what point do we say someone is working hard? Is it working 40hours/week? 50hours/week? or 80-100hours/week?

And how do these hours vary by geography?

Some additional questions:

1. Does it vary between big companies and small companies?
2. Do you need to work a lot to be a high performer?
