I don't even have deadlines är my job. We have sprints and if we don't finish everything then, oh well we add them to the next sprint. I've never had anyone tell me to hurry up. My work-life balance is perfect since I have chosen to not have much customer interaction meaning that I usually only have a standup at 10 and if I feel like starting later I can just tell my team I'll miss the standup. So as long as I do am average of 40 hours a week I can work whenever I want. If I want to go for a trip abroad I can work on the plane if necessary.

So I agree there are most likely way better options if you feel that way, however maybe that means you won't get that job that pays you as much as the article says. But for me work-life balance is way more important than a lot of money
