when you work on a startup and don't have set hours, there is no overtime it's extra hustle 😄

@sakozzy Fair point. Most people would say overtime will be compensated later on. And yet I would not entirely agree. The party goes on for a couple of years once it takes off, which people sometimes underestimate.

@sakozzy Yeah, working overtime when you are own is not "overtime" – it is time to make the first sale, to claim the first deal or client. When I work overtime on my own project, I do not take it that way. :D

Deciding whether to work overtime really depends on your personal and professional priorities, Nathalie. It's key to balance your health and job satisfaction with your career goals and financial needs.

I'd say yes when working overtime can save you much more time the next day. It's also valid when you just want to get something done. I wouldn't work overtime for the sake of it; that can lead to burnout and an unhealthy work-life balance.
