I'm not sure if we fit your description but our "core hours" are 10-16, which is a bit different from other companies in the industry: and there's a lot more focus on getting tasks done vs being in the office with your arse in the seat (though how much of that is COVID? unsure, but the company culture is affected a lot by how we worked during the pandemic as this is when most people got onboarded- we more than quadrupled in size since the start of the pandemic).

I believe I have ADHD, I'm seeking a diagnosis (or at the very least for someone to confirm that I'm just extremely lazy), which in Sweden is actually very difficult, and so far this has been the best company to work for.

That said: I personally have a lot of responsibility, and with responsibility comes more "free reign" on what needs to happen -- this is definitely where I lack the focus to understand what needs to happen next as I get paralysed when there's equally important tasks.. This is not the case for the majority of my company though.

6 hours for core hours? That’s practically no flexibility at all.
Aside, every Bay Area software team I’ve been on has core hours beginning at 10am.
No, that's completely fair, I think in general Swedes prefer the working day to be earlier, so my core hours before this have been 9-16 (yes, one hour longer).
