Great comments! I agree. A number of commenters have said, I would not want to work for a company like that and I think that is good. Who wants to take a job to, only 6 months later, realize they did not like the culture.

However, the point about 60/40 work life balance is not 100% accurate.

I am constantly reading Product Management literature not for work - but because I love it. I am finishing the Disney Biography because I love learning about leadership styles. In other words, I do a job that complements my "spare" time activities... and ANYONE who manages that is a good hire.

This is not to say - go to these things FOR work - that is not the gal/guy I am looking for. You should not do things FOR work that you are not paid to do (that is not fair). But, if you love the work you do and that extends into your life - all the better.

My statement on the 60/40 work/life balance was a conclusion based on my own bias, which I forgot to specify.

Thank you for your feedback! You are correct that the best hires tend to pursue employment that complements their "spare time activities".
