It does depend a lot on your attitude whether you thrive or not.
Over a decade ago I ran into an online argument. A new American PI was upset their Chinese and Taiwanese postdocs were speaking Chinese with each other; the PI couldn't understand what they were saying.
They were also upset that when they had been a postdoc in Japan, people were speaking Japanese with each other, not English.
Seems their attitude was "Everybody must adapt to me". And no, that won't ever work.
