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.
Phoenix Business Pulse
- Culture Practical and influenced by the tech and aerospace sectors.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Always double-check the time! Arizona does not observe Daylight Saving Time, so its offset with the rest of the US changes twice a year. Reach out between 8:30 AM and 11:30 AM. The culture is practical and direct, typical of the growing Mountain West tech hub.
