China forcing people to work 12 hours a day? Tencent, Alibaba, other tech giants' employees complain

China has begun '996 work culture', according to which, people are scheduled to work from 9 am to 9 pm six days a week. The culture is now facing backlash from locals in the country. To protest against the gruelling work hours, aggrieved Chinese office workers have initiated a 'worker lives matter' campaign, which asks everyone to share their work schedules on an open-access spreadsheet that is being circulated over the internet.
