I don't think I've ever heard of a startup where anybody but the founders work 65 hours a week and those are not even official hours.

Thanks-- just to clarify these are regular engineer/developer hours, I will make a note in the original post that these are not founder/co-founder hours.

Absolutely not then. I've never heard of 65 hrs a week either (for non founder/cofounder)
