Re: What's it like to work in Pakistan? At a real job, not govt.
I have worked briefly in pakistan for multinational and local subsidiaries/partners of multinationals and the most stark contrast that I saw was the speed at which people work, The public is not as efficient in general.
Faisal brought up a good point about the level of technology. I am not sure how much of that lack of effieicny was due to limited tools ate people's disposal and how much of it was just work culture. What I know is that while working on similar projects with IBA grads, I could get more done putting in the same number of hours, These guys missed the deadlines while I was usually done before the deadline, and this is where I am not even some workaholic.
My understanding is that things have changed in Pakistan to some level since my experience which is from a decade ago.
