I work for Optum and I’m fully remote.

It seems like almost all of my clients are back 2-3 days a week and it's pretty strictly enforced.

Only exception are global roles that are fully remote, but some are even pushing those to relocate to head office.

Most of the pharma clients I’ve worked with are fully back in office and it’s enforced. There are a few hybrid but it’s case by case. When we go on sites it’s usually very packed.

Any other first year associates feel like their firms don’t really appreciate how much COVID/WFH has stunted their development? I’ve been working at a biglaw firm for 5 months and don’t feel at all like a part of the team, and am extremely stressed out by the isolation of WFH most days. I’m not really sure that anyone at the firm realizes this is happening.
