What projects are those

Pre-pandemic the expectation was ~5-6pm unless the partners were traveling. Post-pandemic there's been basically no expectation beyond "show your face once in a while."

Everyone in my group is gone by 4-5pm, unless there is a fire drill. Even then, ppl go home and log back on most of the time. Specialist group, but the entire corporate floor is like this.
