Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg Reveals Surprising Length of His Work Day
Published at
Facebook(NEW YORK) — Mark Zuckerberg may be a billionaire CEO, but the amount of time he spends in the office is surprisingly close to normal.
In an unannounced question-and-answer session Tuesday night on his Facebook page, Zuckerberg, 30, said he spends about 50 to 60 hours per week in the office and at meetings.
But then again, to Zuckerberg, what is work?
“If you count all the time I’m focused on our mission, that’s basically my whole life,” he said.
“I spend most of my time thinking about how to connect the world and serve our community better, but a lot of that time isn’t in our office or meeting with people or doing what you’d call real work,” Zuckerberg said. “I take a lot of time just to read and think about things by myself.”
Zuckerberg gave another glimpse into life as a CEO last month during a town hall where he revealed the one question he asks before making any key Facebook hire.
“I will only hire someone to work directly for me if I would work for that person,” Zuckerberg told a group in Barcelona, Spain that participated in the Facebook co-founder’s monthly town hall meeting. “It’s a pretty good test.”
