A lot of it kind of depends on team. At KPMG, the requirement is 3 days a week. But my team and multiple other teams don’t really care about the metric, even everyone manager and above come into the office only one day a week (if that)

Interesting, the people I know in ny have to be in the city 3x a week. Hence I'd never work there. Then again, it's no better here. Not sure why my friends in ny have a different experience than NJ but it's public accounting at its finest not making sense lol.

I’ve been home since March of 2020 with PwC

You can transfer to IFS, they have remote roles, though they often require travel.

Is your pwc group asking you to come in or something?

I don’t see as many being advertised, but I do get a lot of mixed reviews on whether or not remote is allowed at a lot of places. Really can be team and department dependent, so even harder to base your decisions off of that. Plus you never really know how long it will last if you can find it.

I think most firms are going to at least 2-3 days a week

I’ve been working from home years before Covid but I used to travel a lot. Since Covid, EY reduced the travel which is good for me.

Is this common at Google ? I have heard they are notorious for being really slow with their hiring process.
