Denver folks - Is Golden too far for a commute to downtown business district? Everyone says it’s doable but I would like perspective from those subject to billable hours. I would love to move to Golden but wondering if this would negatively impact my billable hours.

Are you in office every day? Could you stagger office time to avoid peak rush hour?

Fwiw I think it’s doable and know folks who commute from Evergreen and farther. Feel free to DM!

You may hit some traffic on the way home but as long as you’re ok with that I wouldn’t let it deter you. I reverse commute that route 5 days/ week and just try to avoid peak rush hour (either 7-4 or 9-6). There are far worse commutes imo (eg DTC)

I’ve been a freelance print production designer for many years, and usually on-site in the before times. Now I work remote, and am finding it uneasy dealing with billing. Before I always billed hourly, which made sense, but it’s becoming an issue now. Some companies don’t have a full days’ work, so it seems wrong to bill full days, and it allows me to juggle projects for different companies, but my billable hours are down. I know I should bill a daily rate, but not sure that will fly. Thoughts?

I have an interview with Korn Ferry for an associate principal role and am curious about others’ experiences have been with work-life balance here. Also, I have an idea of what I should be compensated in this type of role, but any insights on how they pay compared to others would be helpful. Are you traveling during the pandemic or have client interactions been virtual? Lastly, if you are a consultant here, are you on billable hours? My current consulting role is not - so this would be new.
