I didn't want to use that word but that's the only thing that comes to mind describing what you are saying.
Why in the world would you find it acceptable to work at a place where the baseline is extreme hours and where extreme hours are required for just an acceptable performance review if you have other options?
I have worked extreme hours in many jobs but that has always been because either it was an exceptional situation or I was doing it of my own accord. Other than those two situations the only other reason I would do it is either:
1 I am working at a startup (preferably it's my own or I own a lot of equity)
2 I needed the job that badly
3 There was some "higher mission" associated with the work (eg manned space travel to mars, rushing to find a vaccine)
2 doesn't apply to twitter engineers and 3 certainly doesn't apply since twitter whose "higher mission" is selling ads.
