Sayak Roy, a professional from Pune, recently shared his experiences working US shifts from India, detailing both the advantages and disadvantages of this lifestyle. Among the key benefits, he highlighted higher salaries and night-shift allowances, an empathetic work culture that respects personal time, and the opportunity to work with international clients. Additionally, he noted that having daytime hours free allows for personal errands and reduces the feeling of 'Monday blues' since the workweek starts on Monday evening. However, Roy also pointed out significant challenges, including the struggle to maintain a healthy sleep cycle, potential health issues like obesity, and difficulties in maintaining social relationships. Mental health challenges such as anxiety and emotional fatigue are also prevalent among those working overnight. His observations resonated with many, particularly those who have experienced similar work schedules, while others noted that such shifts may suit specific personality types that thrive in quieter environments.
