Dubai Business Pulse
- Culture International and multicultural. Sunday is a standard working day, while Friday is often a half-day or holiday.
- Lunch Break Typically 1:00 PM - 2:30 PM.
- Pro Tip The traditional UAE work week is Monday to Friday, but many local businesses and government entities may have shorter hours on Fridays (ending around 12:00 PM). Sunday is no longer a weekend for most, but always verify your contact's specific schedule as multicultural teams vary.
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.
