Hi guys, I am unable to understand if culture is bad or I am thinking about it wrong - “logging off early” message/email at 5/6 PM for someone who started at 9/10 AM. Does that mean the expectation is to stay until like 8 PM for this person? Or the person wants to be transparent in case he’s reached out later?

If you can talk openly with your manager, you can ask them, is leaving at 6 early ?
Their response would tell you the culture, because managers are the ones making/breaking a team culture.
It is bad culture, we have colleagues writing 'early' at 6.30 pm
What are your usual work timings? In the global teams where the team is spread across the US and India, calls usually happen in the evening - around 7-8PM. If someone needs to log off early for some reason, they would send a message like that.
Context: I work at a startup, it's a pretty chill work environment, very flexible, hybrid model. Everything is great.
Problem: They take flexible work hours too seriously, I have meetings at 10 PM on weekdays and almost every weekend th...
