Late-Night Work in India Sparks Conversation on Burnout and Work-Life Balance
A video shared by a US vlogger has sparked a conversation about work-life balance and burnout in India. The clip showed a woman, Princy, working late at night for a pharmaceutical company, highlighting the country's demanding corporate culture and long working hours. Princy's work schedule accommodates US time zones due to her clients being based there. She was seen working outdoors with her laptop late at night, a sight that has become increasingly common in India's corporate culture. The video, shared by Jay, brought attention to the lack of hourly pay for overtime in the country, with some users arguing that employees work late but don't get paid extra. Remote work, while offering flexibility, can also blur the line between professional and personal time. Some users praised Princy's dedication and positive attitude, while others expressed concern about the normalization of late-night work. The discussion highlighted India's demanding corporate culture and the need for better work-life balance to prevent burnout. The video of Princy working late at night has raised important issues about India's corporate culture, long working hours, and the lack of overtime pay. It serves as a reminder of the importance of work-life balance and the need for companies to prioritize their employees' well-being.
