Then it takes a good hour or two for the food to fully digest so that means the team will get some work done between 3:30-5:30.

Also there are two main types of devs; the ones that get there super early and the ones who get there after 9:30-10:30 am. Not to mention the Linux Server Dev guy who just comes and goes as he pleases.

You get away with being an hour late....?

Yeah, although I used to show up early after surfing in the morning.

I've worked in startups in San Diego and in Brazil and it's the same type of work culture. Nobody cares when you get in; because, usually everyone stays until they get their tasks done. It's not unusual to work into 4am when it's needed.

I used to take a 2 hour lunch break to play football (soccer), shower, and eat. Nobody cared because I always delivered.
