Im LLP not AFS, but I cant recommend joining right now. We are underpaid and morale is in the toilet. Leadership (SM/MD) across several practices have left in the past 12 months and we actively loathe both the global ceo and the NA ceo.

If you're relatively junior and planning to stay for 2-4years, fine.
If you're looking for somewhere to spend the next 5-10years, nah.

I have a direct report who is smart, passionate about her job and can be really innovative.

Any tips in navigating how to let go of this heavy idea of "responsibility"?

Working Moms/Dads: Do in-house positions exist with flex time hours? I need to be able to leave work at 4pm to pick up my son from daycare, but i can get back online at home to resume any unfinished work at 8pm. Is this realistic to convey to any companies in an interview? Pandemic aside, is face time 9-7pm really important? Or should i just try to find a job with a salary that covers a nanny salary and accept that i will never see my son on weekdays (which would be sad for both of us)? TIA!
