Elixirr? Culture, mobility, remote living?
I have an upcoming interview for a senior (or mid level - still unsure) position in the US. Does anyone have an experience there? Do they allow remote employees (recently moved from New York).

Check Glassdoor reviews. When i was reached out to about a year ago, all were either 1 or 5 stars which is a major red flag. The 1 stars implied that they 'pressure' new analysts to write 5 star reviews and was a terrible place to work. Also pretty sure they didnt have a US office at that point. I withdrew from the process

As mid/senior hire, I would hope you make your decisions by doing research and speaking with actual employees vs. reading anonymous posts on Glassdoor or FB. Everyone's experience is different and Elixirr is definitely not for everyone. Anonymous reviews tend to skew negative as disgruntled employees are most likely to rant than happy employees spending their time writing about how happy they are. That said, it is a tough and challenging performance-driven environment. Perhaps even more so than MBBs. Lots of people don't make it but also lots of people can be promoted within 12 months of joining. Meet as many people as possible (past and current) and hear their perspectives directly. Most definitely ignore the posts from folks at other firms that begin with "I heard..." As you get towards the tail end of your process and have an offer, feel free to reach out to any partner directly via LinkedIn (especially if you are looking at US). Unlike other firms, I guarantee, the partners will respond and be willing to speak with you.

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?

Anyone have with recent experience interviewing/hiring with FP? Most of what I found online is from pre-covid but it sounds like things might have changed a bit.
