Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM.
Pro Tip Best reached between 10:00 AM and 4:00 PM. Expect a casual, tech-first vibe—informal language and dress are the norm. However, technical competence and speed are non-negotiable. Many in the Bay Area work non-traditional hours, but standard business times remain the safest bet.
