- Lunch Break 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Mornings are often spent dealing with East Coast syncs; domestic LA calls are best between 11:00 AM and 3:00 PM. The culture is more casual than NYC, but still very results-oriented. Traffic is the ultimate local variable; virtual meetings are the standard for avoiding commute-related delays.
Washington D.C. Business Pulse

- Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Ideal call window is 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM and 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM. Punctuality is non-negotiable. DC is a "Power City"; be prepared for very formal protocols and the use of professional or political titles. Networking is a 24/7 activity here, but business calls should stay within 9-6.
