In both Brazilian and American contexts, overworkers are often viewed with mixed perception: admired for dedication but pitied for potential health and social consequences. In Brazil's corporate culture, particularly in São Paulo, overworking is sometimes seen as a sign of commitment, though awareness of burnout is increasing. In the USA, workaholism is increasingly criticized as detrimental to work-life balance.
