Vienna Business Pulse

- Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Call between 9:30 AM and 11:30 AM. Austrian business culture is formal; use professional titles (Herr/Frau + Title) until specifically asked to do otherwise. While it may feel slower-paced than NYC, it is highly organized and values long-term stability over quick wins.
