The recent Reddit post has reported an interview on the differences in holiday and work policy from home for Indian employees compared to their Western counterparts within the US multinational corporations (MNC).
An anonymous user’s honest account of emotional confrontation with their head manager over Diwali resonated with many and focused on the alleged “toxic work culture” in these MNCs.
Alleged policy of distorted society
The original poster, which is a woman identifying as an American MNC employee with a hybrid work model, expressed a deep disappointment in the company’s policies. “I understand that at the end of the day we are simply a cheap work for them, but God, I believe we would have some politicians that treat us as a man.”

She also stated the company to prioritize her Western colleagues by saying: “American/European colleagues can take a long holiday and happily take weeks of spring holidays, Thanksgiving and Christmas.”

The user also added that such considerations are not expanded to Indian employees, even to the main cultural festivals such as Diwali.
Mandate in office during diwali
The core of the user complaint focuses on the policy of “without work from home or sheets” of her company during the Diwali week.
She revealed that: “We all work on Diwali Week, with the exception of 1-2 people will be gone on different days, so there is some support every day.” The user’s field has intensified when their request for work remotely from their hometown during the festival week, because someone must be in the office.

“Believe me, we are still working for the week we deserve to be away. But now they want us in the office. For that we saved the leaves and WFHS,” she added.
“I never cared, never”
The situation turned rapidly, leading to “crying sobing an angry argument” with the manager of the user when she said, “I had to go home. It’s once I get into.”
The resolution only came when another colleague from the same city, because the original poster decided to cancel their letters to enter the office because they suffer the smallest damage. “It wasn’t technically solved, someone just sacrificed,” she said.
The Reddit post ended with a comment on corporate empathy, as the user said: “Your company has never really cared, it never knew, but some days are really frustrating.”
Netizens respond to the post
Most comments on the post emphasized the user while some others shared their personal experience with Western MNC.
The Reddit user said, “Well, that’s a large extent how things work in the Indian MNC.
Another user reflected this idea and said, “It’s not you, you are your managers. I’m an Indian who works in Germany. Our project has a small team in Pune and managers always proudly proclaiming that his team is so devoted that they can work io weekends and holidays.”
Among these negative experiences, some users had a completely different story about working with MNC.
The user claimed that not all workplaces are toxic, and repeats: “I work with a small marketing store with performance, the client is located in Europe, for some reason I cannot get to maintain secret, have the first half of August.
