So I recently joined a early stage startup as a founders office product intern,
Basic Insights My age - 25 Industry - XR Stipend - 20k Travel time - 2 hours up and down Location - Banglore
I rqstd founder for hybrid work as I don't see my real-time need in the office, Founder is quite rigid on the office point and wants me to be present in office no matter what and also on some other things.
I kind of see it as a red flag, what's would you suggest can this turn to a full time offering or just a internship and then ask me to leave the org.
Note - not comprising on my work by any means.
Get a pg near office.
Quit the job, kid. Bangalore traffic is worse than your boss's attitude. No point wasting 4 hours daily for a measly 20k.
Do you have any other option?
Your visibility across org and impression from it will be better in person setting. It's a small inconvenience to pay for career progression - especially in early stage startup. You have rest of your career to keep adding preferences on how your wants to be.
Also this is the worst time to be switching - things are slower. Let this wave be over (almost 2 more years).
Policies are built for the least performing individual and the best performing individual suffers. The WFO policy is rigid because 10-20% of the team might be slackers, mix personal time with work time and not be reasonable with the ratio.
If they allow you to work from home, the least performing individual will use you as an excuse to also request work from home and that snowballs into either creating an equitably fair policy allowing everyone to work from home OR accept that some people are more equal than the other!
In my opinion, complete remote work with an average Indian mindset is not sustainable unless you hire top performers and was only limited to the covid era. Most folks will want you to come WFO.
