Amsterdam Business Pulse

  • Culture Egalitarian, direct, and values work-life balance. Hierarchy is minimized.
  • Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM.
  • Pro Tip Reach out between 9:00 AM and 11:30 AM. The Dutch are famously direct; be prepared for honest, blunt feedback. They value efficiency and a pragmatic approach. Respect the 9-5 work day; unless it's an emergency, do not call after hours as work-life balance is strictly protected.

Chengdu Business Pulse

  • Culture Known for a better work-life balance than the coast. "Lively and relaxed".
  • Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
  • Pro Tip Aim for 10:30 AM to 12:00 PM. Chengdu business is famous for being done over local tea or spicy Sichuan food; if on a video call, keep the atmosphere warm and friendly. Personal rapport is more important here than in the high-pressure coastal cities like Shenzhen.
