“Return to Politics”: Professional struggles in the United States with the culture of the “Cancer Office in Aquarius”

For many professionals who return to India after years of work abroad, reintegration in the workplace can be more difficult than expected. A recent discussion about Reddit highlights how adapting to culture in the workplace in the homeland often brings with him an uncomfortable reality: moving in offices policy.

One of the returnees shared his frustration after returning to India six months ago and starting a new job. “Dealing with the workplace policy after returning pain!” He wrote, describing how colleagues obscure important information about intentionally, avoid cooperation, and sometimes they go through their own as their own.

According to him, a co -worker regularly ignores the messages, takes the sick papers or leaves appropriately before the final dates, and leaves others to bear the burden of work. The other treats him in repairing his custom problems, only to provide solutions later. “When asked if someone had helped him, he kept silent in meetings.”

The professional, who spent nearly a decade in the United States, contradicts his experiences abroad with those in India. He added: “During the ten years I conducted in the United States, I rarely coincided with any co-workers who tried to sabotage me. Well, in fact-and in both cases, they were Indian work colleagues.”

He admitted that “crabs in a bucket mentality” admitted that such experiments made him question his long -term career path in India, even if the return to the United States was not part of his plans. He said: “I certainly do not return to the United States, but such cases make me think if I should think of moving to another place.”

The discussion struck a tendon with other users, many of whom agreed that moving in the office policy is one of the largest obstacles to professionals returning from work cultures abroad. Although it is not universal, such stories highlight the increasing debate about the workplace environments in India – where cooperation and professional efficiency are often at risk due to internal competitions.
