‘3 am calls, 60+ hour work weeks’: Ex-Amazon exec flags ’crazy-debatable’ work culture in India

Adam Broda, a former Amazon executive, took to LinkedIn to highlight the intense work culture among Indian employees. He also flagged the “crazy/debatable thing” about it and shared data on “Countries with the longest work week.” The data showed that the average number of hours worked per employee in India was the “highest” at 56 hours.

In a long post on Instagram, Broda wrote, “At Amazon I worked hard; some weeks I’d work 60+ hrs – but never as many as our team members in India. Much of our organisation’s developer team was based out of Bangalore.”
