Montreal Business Pulse
- Culture Creative, bilingual, and values professional etiquette with a European flair.
- Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Best call window is 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM. Montreal is a bilingual city; always start with "Bonjour" or "Bonjour-Hi." Business culture is sophisticated and values a bit more "flair" and social connection than in Toronto. Punctuality and professional etiquette are highly respected.
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.
