☆ Work Culture in Norway: Strict Working Hours and No Online Shopping
  + stars: | 2024-05-10 | by ( Megan Carnegie | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +7 min
There's a mentality that you should strive to have a life outside work by working set hours and having boundaries. Deep work is the defaultAt work, Norwegians are working, and deep work is expected of everyone. I've set up my notification systems so that only important things come through outside work hours. Talking of work outside work is not taboo, but you don't want to be the guy who can't shut up about work. You get used to this dynamic where time is precious and hate it when someone's late outside work.

These are the main aspects of working in Sweden that other cultures might find surprising. AdvertisementSupport for working parentsIn Sweden, parental leave has become an incubator for new ideas and people often change career direction during their leave. Being on leave gives you time to think with some distance from everyday life. I have been financially supported during my parental leave and as my children grow. Collective bargaining, another tenet of Swedish working culture, prioritizes employee needs and gives more power to the employee.

Barthélémy Kiss, 36, is a politics graduate running his second AI company Powder. Kiss has hired career switchers and liberal arts grads to work on his most recent AI project. Working on this startup, I've learned that people with a liberal arts background have a major edge in our industry. The liberal arts grads we've hired have a creative, human-centric approach to understanding the best applications of AI in their respective fields. We need creative thinkers to get the best out of AI technologyHuman creativity is crucial in the AI space.
