The hours of work per week varies. Some weeks it is 5-10 hours per week. Some weeks it is 30-40 hours per week. Sometimes I had to stretch to work for 10 hours at a time. Such days are rare but they happen sometimes. This pattern has been like this in all my jobs from the beginning (2003).

The days off per year in my current job is just like any other company in India. Apart from 104 weekends and 10 government holidays, there are 20 vacation leaves for planned vacations and 12 casual leaves for ad-hoc personal time off. So total of 32 leaves. This has varied from job to job but the number of leaves has always remained between 28 and 34 in these jobs.
