There’s no nirvana right now! Any of us working should be thankful to have a job in this climate right now. Not sure how much you have noticed, but remote work is down, posted salaries are down, and hundreds going after the same role. I’m afraid we have to wait it out for better opportunities.

funny

I’m looking at switching and I’m at the AC equivalent level at Bain

smart

Yeah but more so because I don’t like consulting. Unfortunately there’s less job postings and for any half decent ones there’s a shit load of applicants.

Working Moms/Dads: Do in-house positions exist with flex time hours? I need to be able to leave work at 4pm to pick up my son from daycare, but i can get back online at home to resume any unfinished work at 8pm. Is this realistic to convey to any companies in an interview? Pandemic aside, is face time 9-7pm really important? Or should i just try to find a job with a salary that covers a nanny salary and accept that i will never see my son on weekdays (which would be sad for both of us)? TIA!
