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.

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.
