Smaller city somewhere has the best chance.

Depends entirely on your city, service line, rank, etc. For example, in my group NYC and Chicago are known as sweatshops but many of the other cities are 9-6 Mon-Fri with working outside of that a rarity until you reach Manager.

Which group are you in?

Work-life balance avoid PA entirely

None

Can confirm smaller city is prob best bet. I’m in a smaller city and it’s not terrible outside quarters and year end. Also kinda depends on what clients you have

Hi fishies! Considering an internal big 4 move from Western Europe to Dubai. Not sure about WLB and whether there’ll be enough growth and learning opportunities after reading some of the threads here. Anyone up for sharing their experience?

I'm reading this book on boundaries. In the work section it says I should tell my boss that I can't work after 5 PM. Knowing that advertising work commonly goes past 5 PM...would my job be in danger if I said that?
There's not really a rule book that says I must work until the work is done even though it's an unsaid expectation. Thoughts?
