“deal with Indian work culture”

My lead works 12-14 hours a day and expects me to do the same, affecting my work-life balance.

What I wish I knew
"To research the company culture before accepting the job."
If I could tell you one thing
"Set clear boundaries and prioritize self-care to avoid burnout."
