Do Indian offices reward 'exhaustion'? Founder says being available '24/7' is not really valuable, reveals what actually is

Nistha Tripathi, a co-founder, sparked a discussion on LinkedIn with her post questioning whether Indian workplaces are unintentionally rewarding exhaustion over real productivity. She describes the guilt employees often feel for leaving on time, even after completing their work, and contrasts it with European teams where people log off without pressure or judgement. Tripathi also highlights how Indian professionals in multinational companies often adjust to late-night calls due to global time zone demands.
