Copenhagen Business Pulse

  • Culture Flat hierarchy and very direct. Values design, green energy, and "Hygge".
  • Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 12:30 PM.
  • Pro Tip Ideal call window is 9:00 AM to 11:30 AM. Danes are famously direct and value their family time; avoid calling after 4:30 PM. The culture is informal and egalitarian; do not worry about titles, but do worry about technical competence and honesty.

San Francisco Business Pulse

  • Culture Innovation-focused and casual. Values disruption, speed, and technical excellence.
  • 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.
