Work in Canada vs Mexico. Shocking differences!
Pizza pays your overtime.
I realized how terrible working ethics in Mexico are after getting my first job in Canada.
I never realized how much employers abuse their employees in Mexico until I got my first job in Canada.
Can you imagine that I believed it was normal to:
- The lack of flexibility in your working shifts and availability.
- To be paid an equal paycheck if worked overtime.
- Not having any days off to relax.
- Working on fever
- Asked about my family’s wealth to be hired.
Yeah, that’s normal in my home country.
Here you have the 5 things that shocked me the most about Canadian work ethics compared to Mexico.
1. Work full-time single option vs. Flexible 4 Hours shift
What, can you set up your availability and work only 4 hours per shift?
Are you serious?
In Mexico, we have little option.
Jobs usually require you 8 hours per day, Monday to Friday at least. Weekends usually 6 hours.
