Is working into the early hours a sign of a dedicated employee? Sometimes, when necessity dictates, it can be. But on an on-going basis, it may be symptomatic of something else. Either an unrealistic workload or an unhealthy culture that subscribes to the idea that ‘good’ employees are ‘always-on’. More Hours, More Output  There are those, like Jack Ma the co-founder of  Alibaba, who believe that more hours, means more output.
