For a time I worked a Pacific TMZ job while based in Central. At first it was requested my local team be available from 10 AM Central to 7 PM Central to align to the rest of the business. It wasn’t the worst thing ever but with young kids who went to bed at 7 PM, it wasn’t ideal.
After a few months my boss said we didn’t have to work the shifted schedule and we went to a more normal 8-5 schedule and all was well—from that perspective—however, when you’re putting in 18 hour days, what’s the difference if your schedule is 8-5, 10-7 or whatever?
Take the job you feel is best for you; you may find out the hours may not need to align.
- throwailearner 5y agoYeah they’re ok with just some overlap - but it’s hard to know if this will be maintained in the future… I’m not too worried about long days (I would start later if needed) but late meetings for instance. I also do stuff with my wife like dance classes or climbing after work which would be quite challenging, how did you cope with social life with that schedule?
