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.

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.
