Anyone have a running list of firms that are pushing RTO? From what I’ve heard, it seems like it’s currently only really Sullivan and Jones Day that are gunning for 5 days in the office. Think any other firms will follow suit?

Jones day isn’t at 5 days in the office, where did you get this? Fridays are still pretty empty and the extra day at home here or there not an issue. I’d say you could be at ~65% in the office and no one would say a thing

Interesting. My friend is in the NY office

How did you give notice you were lateraling to people you like? Particularly if you haven't been there that long?

I'm lateraling to another firm because frankly I think the management of this one is terrible, but the people (and individual partners) I actually work with are awesome. I've only been here for about 18 months, so I imagine that short time frame will make it extra awkward 😬
