Maybe the fruit company truly does have a terrible culture compared to the others, but it's definitely not the norm. And it's madness to argue that such long hours are a healthy compromise for a job with better pay. If anything, it's extremely short-sighted to expect that you're getting top performance from anyone working 60, never mind 100+ hours a week.

In any case, it's strange to compare working as a flight attendant for an airline with working at a top tier tech company. They are incomparable in my opinion.
