Travel depends on the accomodation provided and the country you have to travel to.
If the country and accomodation are fine, I think it's fine.
Else, no.
Frequent travel or not. Sacrifices?, What's your preference?

My job also requires me to travel as well. Almost 70% the time of the job will require me to travel in Asia Pacific region which mostly undeveloped countries. Accomodation provided is not good, sometimes not even in hotel. Works on every single day from 9-9 sometimes even non stop for two days. I have no life, no friends, no good rest (hotel and food sucks), nothing but work work work. I miss all the holidays (no replacements) in Malaysia, the last one I actually celebrated was chinese new year. Here comes the worst part, I can't even get another job without quiting the existing one first because I can't attend interviews when I was overseas!!! And not everyone can afford to quit without a job, people will have commitment.
So, before you sign up, make sure you investigate properly what kind of treatment the company gives you and how long is the trip usually gonna be and to where. Business travelling is not vacation. So don't get confused. |
