Do you think there is any hope of seeing 996 disappear in this life?

996 is a deformed working mode, and now it has become the standard of Internet companies, which is also the reason why large Internet companies can take the lead. They recruit the best talents and let them work the longest. This mode of operation is as efficient as the assembly line.

At the same time, we should also see that this mode of work will show the ugly face of capitalists in a glance. They have mastered the psychological state of most people. Young people want to work more and earn more money, and also want to have a healthy working time. On balance, they will not hesitate to choose the former. According to their ideas, the same is true of learning, which is not bad for their work in recent years. Realizing financial freedom as soon as possible is king.

Then according to this logic, I can answer this question. Is there any hope of seeing 996 disappear in this life? My answer is that there is no hope, it is impossible, and it will exist forever.

Enterprises need to create value by recruiting people. The weight of eight hours is far from satisfying the ambition of entrepreneurs. It is a kind of torture for them to do an easy job higher than ordinary people. In order to make themselves comfortable, they will naturally choose to let employees work overtime, even if the work content is no longer needed.

Industry needs. 996 company is concentrated in some leading Internet companies, and its nature of work is to operate 24 hours a day. You can imagine how much work they have. To give a simple example, Taobao Double Eleven, the most important trading time is after zero. Such a large transaction scale must require the support of thousands of technicians to operate.

The needs of migrant workers. What migrant workers like most is to realize financial freedom as soon as possible. If we follow the eight-hour work system, the difficulty can be imagined. So a large part will choose to work overtime.

996 is not a simple exploitation enterprise, its existence is reasonable. If this mode of work cannot exist, it will surely die out under public opinion. However, this is not the case. While enjoying the welfare benefits brought by overtime work, migrant workers complain that enterprises are too capitalist, which will only make 996 flourish until it becomes a habit.

I just hope that 996 will not become the standard of all companies in the future.
