Anyone living on the East coast on West coast teams? Or vice versa? How do you handle schedules and having work boundaries? I am just getting started and have flexibility to decide my own hours, what’s the best approach?

I work with a developer in India so I deal with this everyday. I’ve found it best to find a time where you have a few hours (1-3) in common with your team. When issues arise it is easier to deal with it in real time and then spend the rest of the time on your own. This way you stay updated on your team’s progress and they stay updated on yours throughout the time difference.

I worked on a team where I was West Coast and other colleagues were on the East coast and it worked out, because there was overlap in our day. I do contemplate working "East coast" hours, so I can end the day earlier.

Hadn’t noticed this sub before, and most of the threads are old so thought I’d ask a follow up - how has everyone been handling parenting with public accounting?

Busy season was rough, things are looking better now as things return to normal. Still working crazy hours if you count the daycare duties on top of utilization targets.
