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.
Tehran Business Pulse
- Culture Relationship-heavy and formal. Respect for hierarchy is paramount.
- Lunch Break 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
- Pro Tip The work week is Saturday to Wednesday. Thursday is often a half-day. Call between 9:00 AM and 12:00 PM. Iranian business culture is very formal and involves "Taarof" (a complex system of etiquette); be patient, polite, and avoid rushing into business without proper greetings.
