Berlin Business Pulse

  • Culture Direct, efficient, and values privacy. Clear separation between work and personal life.
  • Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM.
  • Pro Tip Reach out between 9:00 AM and 11:30 AM. Germans value efficiency and direct communication; do not be offended by a lack of small talk. Respect the strict 9-5 (or 8-4) work day. Calling after 6:00 PM or on weekends is considered a major intrusion into private life.

Zurich Business Pulse

  • Culture Precise, formal, and highly efficient. Values quality and punctuality above all.
  • Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
  • Pro Tip The ideal window is 9:00 AM to 11:30 AM. Punctuality in Switzerland is non-negotiable; being even one minute late is considered a serious lack of professionalism. Keep your discussion focused, data-driven, and highly organized. Avoid calling during the 12-1 PM lunch hour.
