Why do many Internet companies implement the 996 working system?

First of all, unreasonable internal management mechanism and corporate culture. Many enterprises have weak management and bloated back-end institutions, but they set unreasonable business objectives and create excessive competitive pressure, which leads to the inability to complete departmental tasks without overtime. Some enterprises even think that the hospital is the honor of the project to promote how many days of overtime, how many days did not go home, the baby is about to give birth. The abnormal development of corporate culture makes it a sign of not working overtime and working less.

Second, some business owners refuse to raise the cost of recruiting employees, and constantly test the upper limit of people's ability with "job saturation". If there are many people working, they can only work overtime to complete their work goals. Coupled with the strict assessment system, everyone unconsciously becomes a "PUA" in the workplace. In fact, properly weakening "job saturation" and evaluating people with attitude and efficiency can actually stimulate people's enthusiasm, because everyone's daily excitement and efficient working hours are effective, and constantly squeezing the physical limit is squeezing oil and water on the trend of physical decline.

Third, some enterprises lack care for employees' health and family. Many startups went public after their success, and a large number of founders and shareholders became billionaires. But the welfare and laziness of employees have not improved. Instead, they constantly control costs and fire employees for good performance. Turn a blind eye to the physical crisis that may be caused by long-term overtime and overwork, and lack the most basic care and respect for employees.

Fourth, business owners ignore the law and the functions of labor management departments are lacking. Although the state has stipulated the eight-hour working system and overtime pay, private entrepreneurs often break through legal management because of their profit-seeking nature, resulting in "what should be given to employees, but employees should pay less." However, the labor management department rarely takes the initiative to perform its duties and fails to correct the phenomenon of illegal employment in time. Even today, the "996" work has become a matter of course and a "blessing"!

Fifth, misguided public opinion. Today, some people still claim that the "996" working system is the best choice in today's society, and the eight-hour working system is out of date. In fact, it is not surprising, because the ability of capital to control public opinion is still very strong. Fortunately, with the development of media and mobile Internet, grassroots employees with no capital at the bottom can speak out, giving us a chance to reflect on why we should break "996".
