My own analogy is USA and Thailand.

in terms of geopolitical differences, I think the "Protestant work ethic" tradition is a large driver of USA perceptions on work.

Conversely in Thailand, the emphasis on hierarchy and workplace harmony (no critical conversations) disincentives sticking one's head out, including working longer to work on a perceived deadlines.
