While acknowledging that European culture isn’t without its flaws, she expressed regret over India’s lack of clean air, safer roads, and better access to basic facilities. “I’d take that over Blinkit/Zomato any day,” she commented.
Her thoughts sparked a heated debate online. While some users sympathized with her viewpoint, others argued that her comparison ignored the vast economic and cultural differences between India and Europe.
One user wrote, “Not everyone in India works past 12 AM, and not everyone in Europe works 40 hours a week.” Another shared their concerns about the treatment of Indian employees, saying, “I’ve worked with outsourcers in India and have been horrified by how employees are treated.”
Her posts have reignited discussions about work-life balance and the often rigid corporate culture in India. Many echoed her sentiments, calling for reforms that prioritize employee well-being and respect in the workplace.
