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.
Zurich Business Pulse
- Culture Precise, formal, and highly efficient. Values quality and punctuality above all.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
- Pro Tip The ideal window is 9:00 AM to 11:30 AM. Punctuality in Switzerland is non-negotiable; being even one minute late is considered a serious lack of professionalism. Keep your discussion focused, data-driven, and highly organized. Avoid calling during the 12-1 PM lunch hour.
