Answer to Question 1

In an individualistic culture, like the United States and Germany, people focus
more on themselves and less on the groups to which they belong. In this culture, people tend to
use more direct communication and prefer to dominate or compete in conflict situations. In a
collectivistic culture, like China and Mexico, people focus more on their families and communities than themselves. In this culture, people tend to use more indirect communication
and prefer to avoid, accommodate, or use mediation in conflict situations

Answer to Question 2

(1) low pay (often lower than minimum wage standards), (2) long workdays, (3) harsh
working conditions.
