I probably work the hardest during monthly or quarterly close. Other regular days I barely spend 2-3 hours per day on actual work. It’s sad but I don’t really care for my work just in it for the salary

Honest work. I occasionally get distracted or just need a screen break. I'm probably productive for 6 out of my 8 hours I'd say

Same here

I take a 5-10 min break every hour or so to keep focused. If I have time to slack I use it to look into how to make process improvements.

I probably put in a solid 20 hours of real work a week.

I'm not good at my tech stack. I've somehow managed to perform all my tasks without any escalation/blunders but that also by some help/googling.
I also managed to switch from an Indian mnc to a reputed company and now also somehow cleared a FAANG interview,but i know I'm not much knowledgeable in my tech .

I often fail at some interviews badly.
Not sure till when I'll be able to carry forward by this and the hard wlb at FAANG companies is giving me a fear.

Hi fishies! Considering an internal big 4 move from Western Europe to Dubai. Not sure about WLB and whether there’ll be enough growth and learning opportunities after reading some of the threads here. Anyone up for sharing their experience? Especially concerned about sexism / racism as a WOC…and whether moving back to Europe in a few years will be difficult because the ME experience won’t be considered valuable.
