Hi All,
I am a new hire, joined as SM from Gurgaon location. My manager sits in Hyd, my LOB are from London & US and I hardly have any teammates here in GGN. I visited the office during my initial 2 weeks, but from the last 2 weeks I am not visiting the office as I have to work till 10/10.30 pm. Will it be an issue if you aren't working from the office? Are they tracking if employees are working from the office?
-Thanks!

😂😂 yes sir. We also have shift and work till 10:30 PM, login at 1:30PM. And we stay in office sadly and reach home by 11:30. It’s best to talk to your manager in Hyd, but going forward company is going to introduce strict number of days to be present in office. 3 days/week working, mandatory. Probably from January but yeah. It will be company wide. So my suggestion is either to take liberty and keep doing what you are doing until it lasts, or talk to your manager. Also, if he or she turns out to be micromanager then they will take out your office punch in and out data. So tread carefully

Doesn't make sense for me to visit office when not a single team member is around. I visited the office during day sat there with no one around me in the bay had lunch alone, came back. If I have to go there just to show my face, that too to whom? Better off WFH at least I have my little children around :)
Just mere time waste to commute, see the office building and come back.
Yup letz see how long it will last not that I am not working :)

“Come to talk” by whom? Delivery lead or lob? If anyone below that level says 5 days working then you can ignore and have a good night sleep.

Its not about you are alone or with team members. Its about you work in Office. Bank doesn’t entertain connecting from outside office to work considering all the security/confidentiality things.

They don’t track but they have all the data of your office in timing. If there is a necessity to pull the report and get caught, there might be consequences for violating the bank policy.
When that happens, it will be only between you and HR, your manager can’t even stand for you.

It always better to have proof like, you have dropped a mail to manager on your remote working

In general Manager doesn’t stand for anyone in this company, from what I’ve observed over last 7 years.

How do people focus in the office? I'm a first year and I've been mostly wfh since I started and I'm super productive at home - my setup is comfortable, I rarely get interrupted, and I feel like I can stay really focused in my home office.

Our SAs started today, so the firm is making us come in more often. My office set up is so awkward, screens are too small, and I'm constantly getting interrupted. Not to mention the extra time it took to get ready and commute. How do people do this?
