NRN was right, Youth should work 70h/week - Sasta Naval of India (Kunal from cred)

After Narayan Murthy, bhavish Agarwal, sajjan Jindal , Mohandas pai...next joker to fling his hat is Mr. Entrepreneur no. 1

He is saying that if we work 💯 h then we can become a developed nation soon.

I think they should read Union budget, how government spends and it's mostly on subsidy, freebies and repayment of interest.

Basically, if we slog also then 30-40% of amount will go out as tax and that tax will be spent on useless stuff.

PS - 💯 h working janta will not get any concession in education, health, tourism etc.

Peace out ✌️

Now you can type ur rant after 5pm.

This is really frustrating and sad to see that no other good founders are coming out to oppose this bullshit (pardon me if anyone has). They should also read about the mental health issue in India. Why is it just about putting more hours per person and not including more people in the workforce? I have seen lot of useless product being built - why not think efficiently? How about improving the founder mentality and not just expecting more from employees? They could use sometime to upgrade themselves and create better ecosystem than just marketing 100hrs a week. These buggers will again make more people leave India.

btw, I have no problem with people working hard. I have done it myself for many years and might do it again. I just don't like these founders selling hours with India story. This seems opportunistic.

people need to understand that these statements are for passionate/ambitions people who are actually doing something worthwhile, not for people with slave mentality, only those are getting offended because they want to be slaves only for 40hrs

How does cred meaningfully impact lives.? It just encourages consumerism. Every dumbass founder who's opened the nth edtech claims to be "pushing the boundaries" and talking about furthering the development of India while all the content is already available for free.

He isn't wrong but not everyone should work that way. Depends on what you're doing and your goals

Its very easy to convince yourself or actually work for 100 hrs a week or even more when you are working for your own startup where you have lot of things on the line, plus the return and reward you get if it becomes successful/or get acquired eventually is just out of the imaginable bounds of any employee.

So founders would happily do this. Because they have chosen this game. However you can't expect your employees to do this who at the max would get a little better bonus or Increment if he slogs for 100 hrs. So he would practically not be motivated at all.

So this is surely a bull shit. If someone wants to really work hard, that person will, without this shit heads telling them to.

If it's my own company i am willing to put 70- 90 hrs . But what's0 the point of working 70 hr when I know I may be replaced anytime and I might go to another company whenever I want.
