Chicago Business Pulse
- Culture Practical, hardworking, and friendly. A major hub for logistics, finance, and manufacturing.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Best times for calls are 9:00 AM to 11:30 AM. Chicagoans are known for being practical and direct but also friendlier than their East Coast counterparts. The Central Time Zone is the "Goldilocks zone" for North American business, allowing for easy syncs with both NYC and LA.
Mexico City Business Pulse
- Culture Formal but friendly. Titles and hierarchy are respected, and small talk is essential before business.
- Lunch Break 2:00 PM - 4:00 PM (Main meal of the day).
- Pro Tip The 2 PM - 4 PM lunch window is strictly for eating and socializing; do not expect business availability then. Best call times are 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM or after 4:30 PM. Use formal titles (Licenciado, Ingeniero) until specifically invited to use first names.
