Good morning! I have a question. For those of you who were asked to go to the office and requested to be fully remote. What did you have to prove/show to HR? I have anxiety every time I go to the office, I try to sit as far away from everyone as I can because all conversations and noises annoy me and distract me. I am pretty sure I have social anxiety. Thank you.

It very much depends on your company and frankly how motivated they are to hang onto you. EY will still sign off on remote for certain documented disabilities (anxiety would not be one of them), but lots of entities are taking the legal position that the core job functions cannot be performed fully remote. This is an unfortunate reflection of what's happening in both the market and in judicial review, though I also think it's a consequence of people abusing the accommodations process. I encouraged an acquaintance with well documented PTSD to fight for hybrid within his company on the east coast, and he eventually got it approved, but even in that instance fully remote was not ever on the table.

Good for him! Glad it worked out!

I have medical disability and still was denied. I provided doctors note .

Thank you! I am glad that it worked for you!

Social anxiety would be a very difficult reason to be approved.

They have picked the in person days and I didn't have a say unfortunately. I just wish we could stay away from Tuesdays and Thursdays :(

Hello,
I've recieved an offer from Morgan Stanley, my previous salary was around 6 Lpa and last offered was around 15 Lpa (WFH), I quoted 40 to 45% on top of that around 22 Lpa considering Mumbai location, WFO and Glassdoor pay range.
Did I just do a mistake by quoting too high a number? Please let me know your opinions.
