Portland Business Pulse
- Culture Creative, informal, and values sustainability and technical excellence.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
- Pro Tip The "sweet spot" is 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM. Expect a very casual professional environment (informal dress is the norm). Punctuality is still important, but the vibe is collaborative and egalitarian. Many in Portland value their work-life balance, so avoid late evening calls.
Taipei Business Pulse
- Culture High-tech and efficient. Values both modern innovation and traditional professional respect.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Best reached between 10:00 AM and 11:30 AM. Taipei is a major global tech hub; expect high professional standards and efficiency. Hierarchy is respected, but the culture is increasingly globalized. Avoid the strictly observed 12-1:30 PM lunch and rest window.
