When did 9-5 become 9-7 ? 👀💀

I know some companies that have mandated 9-6, which in itself is an insane, on top of that you add 30min to 2hrs for commute outside of work hours.

But now companies want have started extending it to 9-7, without any extra benefits 💀

Is this the new norm?

What was off the books before, is now made mandatory Nothing new here. Started my career witha top OEM. The general shift starts at 8. And ends at 5. But everyday production meeting would be at 5.30 and go on till 7pm. My next job was with GE, people would get all sort of important task only after 5... And everyday we stayed atleast till 8. So most of us will login only by 11 and first 3-4 hrs we did nothing but chat.

Your take on 9hours working mandatory ?

Hi Folks, has making a 9hour workday become a standard practice in all offices?

This is sucha shitty role.. why can we just finish our work n leave? Why do we have to stay n complete 9hrs as it’s some school.

When did 9to5 become 9to6?

I hate how companies just silently steal time. BC build a robot so that you can have it work 24x7x365. But extending 8 hours into 9 means what? That they don't pay for that 1 hour of break in the day.

Is 9-5 a myth in India?

How many of you actually only work 9-5? Do you get paid for overtime? Is Indian corporate culture disconnected from the 40-hour workweek belief?
