A woman from Bengaluru has sparked conversation online after sharing her struggle commuting to Electronic City during heavy rain, highlighting the often-overlooked realities of IT life.
In her viral post, she described how rain brought traffic to a crawl, crowded metro stations, and long delays—turning what should be a routine journey into an exhausting ordeal.
Her remark, 'IT life is not just AC offices,' struck a chord with many professionals who face similar challenges daily.
Users across platforms echoed her experience, pointing out how Bengaluru's infrastructure struggles to cope with sudden weather changes. Many shared stories of hours spent in traffic, packed public transport, and unpredictable commute times.
While the IT sector is often associated with comfortable office environments, the post highlighted the less glamorous side—long travel hours, stress, and physical fatigue caused by the city's congestion.
The situation reflects broader concerns about urban planning, drainage systems, and transport capacity in rapidly growing tech hubs like Electronic City.
For thousands of IT employees in Bengaluru, especially during monsoons, the daily commute remains one of the toughest parts of their routine—often overshadowing the perks of corporate life
