Dear Mates,
Heard a lot about Harsh Working corporate culture at Kenya-Nairobi, 12 hrs a day even more many time is it ?
I am asking 'in general' as I got a very good offer from Nairobi almost (3 times more than my current Indian salary).
Wonder, if they have regular work policy as per International Labour Laws or it may vary drastically (here I am working 9 - 10 hrs which include free lunch from the employer) cuz I heard that they ask for working for 12 hrs everyday & 70% - 80% companies don't give Saturday off, even some expect work on Sundays too.
Before thinking on this offer I want to make it sure if it is 'logical' as I am not just a 'Money guy' for me giving time to family is equally important.
I understand the thumb-rule that there may be valid reasons for doing so some-time by various firms.
Currently I m working as Sr. Research Scientist (Pharmaceuticals) for a firm here at India, from 9am to 6.30pm 5 days a week, most of my other friends are also working 5 days.
Hope will get some help on this.
Regards.
