Nope, purely depends on client but 95% teams have not traveled

It depends on the client and you don’t have to go if you don’t feel comfortable even if the client asks.

I traveled twice this summer- no set plans to travel again though. It’s definitely still down, and some of that seems to be more about changing views on travel in general and less about COVID.

I think there’ll be less travel post-pandemic. There’s a heightened awareness of unnecessary travel and cost reductions.

Yes somewhat

I traveled twice in august. No more plans to travel in 2021.

My team has done 3 trips since June. All optional and anyone can opt out of it, but mostly everyone opts in. Not sure if people feel pressured, but I didn’t.

Only have traveled 2/3 times in the past three years (even pre covid), wish it was more honestly!

Not for me (Advisory - Human Capital)

Been traveling at least every other week.

Traveled last week, traveling again in the beginning of November. Trying to get it up to twice a month but it’s capped at a headcount and there are a number of people that want to go. Hoping it’ll continue to get more and more open but I think that’s a little optimistic for the time being

Thoroughly depends on the client. Less than 1k are in offices each week, and less than 1 k traveling. Out of 33k.

Hi everyone, would like to know the Bowl's thoughts on this:
I am a recent MBA graduate who has joined one of the cloud computing firms. It's all good. Loving the new job. But I would eventually want to make a move to Google. I am a project manager and would like to know the opportunities at Google for me in the future. What skills should I have? What roles should I look out for and when would it be best to switch?
