[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I worked internationally for 15 years. It’s not the European colleagues problem it’s yours (company). You can’t impose American ideals on a foreign workforce. You have to adapt to their cultural norms. Europe is not “one size fits all.” There are a different set of norms, labor laws, and expectations in France than in Germany or Poland. Think it about it flipped - how would you feel if your company decided that everyone had to follow Japanese work culture to meet the expectations of the leadership in Tokyo. It would be a shock to the system. [/quote] The absolute worst is working for any Asian company. So much needless face time that sucks up the hours and nothing gets done. Horribly inefficient and unproductive. Pay also isn’t great…but at least the European countries value your free time.[/quote]
