our company doesnt do compile on push on the server. It only does it when approved by a subset of ppl. The reason is we have a limited amount of servers and compile takes about 40min/variation. It's very annoying considering at prev job compile took about 10 min in total (project was organized better+ better servers) and there wasn't a limit at all-> compile at each push to gerrit.

I'm now trying to migrate from msbuild to cmake+sscache+PCH for std libraries while also trimming unnecessary includes to reduce suffering in the future - if not for me then at least for future developers. So I would say compile time is important for development. It causes other limitations too (like bugfixing becomes a huge commit with several squished fixes together to avoid recompiles, messing up git history or slower context switching when developing several features in parallel)
