The 'work hard/play hard' mantra, while seemingly benign, often leads to a culture of overwork and excessive partying, ultimately harming employee wellbeing and company productivity.
The relentless grind often leads to physical and mental exhaustion, increased stress levels, and burnout, which not only impacts employees but also severely affects organisational performance.
The so-called 'play hard' component can encourage a culture where inappropriate behavior is tolerated, resulting in serious consequences such as sexual harassment and substance abuse.
Underlying the 'work hard/play hard' ideology is a troubling reality: it contributes to disengagement and toxicity in the workplace, with long-lasting effects on both employees and companies.
