I assume that an "all-hands" meeting at 1AM means an all-hands for everybody working the night shift, not the entire staff. Yes, shift work sucks, but that doesn't necessarily mean overwork.


Having several SpaceX employees in my circle of friends, I would not assume that at all.


Are your friends up at 1am because they're excited about what they're doing?


No because optimizing for ad click rate just doesn't get me out of bed.


Shift work also correlates with elevated levels of various diseases and cancers.
