I’m sure it varies a ton by client and practice but my general sense (based off of no actual data) is that maybe we are generally back at about 25% of pre pandemic travel? Lots of clients still working remotely

25-30% would be ideal for me forever lol

I have been here for a little while and have yet to travel. It seems that there is the possibility, but from everything I hear the clients in tech don't really care where we work from and don't feel the need to pay our expenses to get the same work.

Makes sense, I would think during whiteboard sessions and key design decisions it would be easier. I’ve noticed that clients will punt decisions while remote

We have some teams on site every week, some every other week and some still remote. Average might be 25%, but not the model for each project

Hi everyone,
I’m currently looking to build a career within the ESG consulting and strategy space. I am in a career transition phase and have a tax consultancy background from a Big 4 for 5+ years. However, I believe I have gained some skills that are transferable to ace at ESG consulting as well. While I am still in the process of upskilling myself and gaining the required knowledge, could you help me with referring my CV or with some leads?
