As regards so auction processes: what do you see these days is being delivered with the final offer of a bidder? Usually, it was a mark-up of the SPA that was uploaded to the data room. But I have the feeling sellers are getting more cost sensitive and do not want their lawyers to deal with a number of SPA mark-ups. Can you share what you have recently seen in the market?

From the buyside — I’ve seen, rather than marking up the auction draft SPA, sending the final bid and attaching a summary of the material issues/terms the buyer would like reflected based on their reading of the seller’s auction draft. If chosen, they’d enter into exclusivity and buyers counsel would proceed to mark up the auction draft at that point.

I agree with this. Often, in the seller's process letter, the seller will have a matrix of material issues that lay out the seller's preference (or position in an auction SPA that is already drafted) and the buyer is required to respond to those issues (accept, modify as follows, etc) and add any others. The issues include everything from purchase price structure, escrows, expected reps, RWI structure and how costs will be handled, etc.

WFH Vs WF Office Vs Hybrid, Which one should you take?
If you are fresher, go for a WF Office setup. You will learn things beyond your work. In the initial phase of of your career, one needs to focus more on learning than on comfort. The interactions at office, meeting with collegues, conversations at the cafeteria, sense of responsibilty, the need to walk up on time to reach office etc will shape you for better.

Once you have a work experience of few year then any setup is fine. Go for WFH.
