They are terrible and even if the project tells you before you start what the expectations are, just know that it will slowly start creeping that you need to be in more meetings, work later etc
I’m on a global project and it is horrendous. I’d have meetings end at 12/1am sometimes and start at 5/6am

These are always challenging; I was once on one with two European time zones, three US time zones, India and Hong Kong. Bad for everyone
Avoid like covid.
Leadership will assure you of WLB to entice you. Once on the study 5:30am or 6am calls with India will be expected as you’ll have to accommodate their existing recurring meetings. You’ll work through lunch with the UK / European co-workers. You’re afternoon will be dedicated to East Coast USA, and evenings to West Coast USA. It’ll be 10pm when you take your first break, then you have to clear your emails, contribute to the Firm and prepare any material for the next day. You’ll be lucky if you get 4 hours sleep per night.
The unspoken expectations are that you suck it up, show up energized each day, smile and make the deadline like a good team player in exchange for a good review!
