That's my rough average for actual work, including meetings, which can vary a bit. I've been at the company 5 years, when I first started I worked my ass off and got a lot done, but it was frustrating seeing how slowly everything worked and how little work people did, it felt like the company actively pushed back against trying to get anything done fast. Especially coming from a startup where id be doing everything. After having kids and changing my priorities a bit I've learned to just embrace it. I try do the least amount of work possible to be average or slightly above average on productivity.

In my next life, I want this. I work 4x what you do but make double. It's very often not worth it. Your priorities are right. When my cost of living goes down, I'll join you.
Are you IC or Management?
