Impressions of working at onsite!

This was my first onsite trip at work. I found the work environment very different than back at offshore. I found the environment to be very challenging and motivating all the time. One has to be quick and smart. I had a very complacent experience working at onsite. I was very efficient and productive in my short stay of a month here. Luckily, I found a small and chirpy team at onsite. I highlight small as being part of a small team I knew every member closely.
I always wanted to know someone inspirational working in my organization and in my team. Looks like I have found few of them.
One one hand where I find the environment motivating, on the other side I found there is no scope of doing anything apart from work. This in one sense is good as there is lot much time left to do anything else. Working at onsite, I couldn't at any point say, I did not no something. If I am a developer I am expected to know all aspects of development irrespective of the module it belongs to or any other aspect for that matter. It is like jumping into the battleground irrespective of the fact if you have required weapons or not, just fight. This is also fun.
I found a special privilege of working from home. At offshore this concept of working from home is not much encouraged.
