Working in IT with children at home

drrr 2019-05-13 21:57:57

We both work in IT in the US and want to move to India, I see most people in India in our outsourced or partner IT offices leave from work very late after all the calls with the US - at least around 9PM India time.
How do people in India sustain this if they have kids?
are any workplaces flexible enough for the mom to come home by 5pm and login from work or is that a rare case?
Any insights and experiences would be great!!!!

All boils down to the type of work/team and management. Within same manager one team might be flexible, one might have some timelines..

Hi,I worked in IT for 10 yrs and I feel you can always keep your working hrs informed to the company you r joining and also for late calls you can attend from home. I used to come home around 6 then used to join stand-ups calls from home at 7:30 or so. I used to follow 11-8 time . All depends on your Project and how you convince your manager . These days most of the companies are flexible enough. A good tram player and a performer will always have a good place.
