Indian Tech Employees Compare Work Culture and Expectations in India, UK, and US Firms
Two Indian tech employees shared contrasting experiences comparing work cultures abroad and in India. One noted greater independence and fewer assigned tasks at a UK firm, contrasting with Indian companies' frequent task overload and constant managerial oversight. Another highlighted that US counterparts handle fewer projects with respect for work-life balance and higher pay, while Indian teams juggle multiple projects, face mandatory office attendance, and stricter supervision. Both raised concerns about differing employee treatment based on geography and workplace expectations.
