Are there any NYC ad agencies that have flexible remote WFH policies or is everyone required to be in the office a few days a week?

Don’t bank on anything. Everyone will end up back in the office eventually. Goldman Sachs just dropped all Covid policies - no vaccinations, no testing, no masks. Apple’s going to follow suit. Soon everyone will be back in person no matter what they’re saying now

^I certainly wouldn't bank on a global RTO. It's way too late for that.

Even in the more pro-RTO news outlets Goldman Sachs and Apple are getting bad press for their arbitrary RTO policies. Goldman is notorious for treating its employees like livestock and Apple isn't much better. The very day Goldman implemented their RTO mandate 6 employees walked out in protest.

Not everyone is following suit - far from it. Many are embracing a YES, AND approach, giving them access to the best of all the ways of working in today's world.

Tinuiti is fully remote with the option to go in if you want to

Full remote for us but we can come in whenever

Pretty sure Dentsu is fully remote

Confirming. There are some clients that want regular face time, but outside of that it is fully remote.

FCBHealth full voluntary return. Nothing mandated. No assigned seats. A lot of newly hired staff does not live in NYC area anyways.

FCB Chicago on the other hand is 3 days a week mandatory :(

Vox / Group Nine Media are flexible / mostly remote.

Mandated Hybrid, with some 100% WFH exceptions. but the ratio of in-person and remote can be determined on a case by case basis if necessary.

Huge is remote

Has anyone here participated in the year long remote year program? My company is fully remote in the US and is in general supportive of me going but concerned about local and international tax liability. Remote year doesn’t share tax advice and our HR team is small. Curious to hear from people at companies who have done it before and if there were any issues from a tax or payroll perspective. Trying to get the formal approval from my company before officially signing up, advice welcome!

I started my new job completely remotely in June and when we go back to the office, it would be a 1.2 hour, 40-mile one way commute.. Would it be entitled of me to ask to come into the office 3x/week since by the time that we return to the office, I’ve already proven that I can work efficiently from home? I feel like it’s a much more sustainable option.

Hello Everyone,

My joining is on 11th July. I believe I have to collect the laptop from Camac street on joining date. But after laptop collection, should I WFH as the Technopolis office is not ready? Also, how much time does it take on first day for all the formalities? After laptop collection and formalities, I am planning to return to my hometown which is 250 km away.
