Yep. I do a lot of overtime that I feel is needed to 'compensate' my lack of experience, learn stuff etc. Logically I get that it is overtime, that it is work. But the inner pressure still makes me do this to try to deliver at the same pace as all the other developers.

Thank you for answering :)!
Do you think your productivity, or the quality of your work, is better after overtime?
Have you discussed the way you feel about this situation with a manager?

I get to learn things 'faster' and for that deliver things faster. I talked a bit with my manager and for that, they always tell me to be less hard on myself.
