Regardless of the discussion on long hours culture if you do really need to work more than can be done in eight hours then I think there are smarter ways of doing it.

I would also question how effective you are when you work late. If you're really really head down working then working past 9pm is pretty much impossible. Then you get in late the next day and you're less effective and the cycle continues.

I found that when super busy for me it was better to get in early, concentrate from 7.30 til 10am then have a break, work through til lunch another proper break - away from the desk. Get back to it then leave on time. You've still completed far more hours and probably been more effective as it's quieter in the mornings and less distractions.
