It’s going to change by the day/week and will depend on what you chose is best for you, your client, and your team. Several orgs are modeling what this will look like — the default will be remote for focused work and on site/in the office for collaboration and socializing/networking. Gone are the days where you travel Mon-Thur just because.. it needs to be purposeful.

EY3 - the top 3 banks have said 50% capacity is as high as they will go. Also, they are expecting to have close to 30% of employees as permanent WFH. I think travel gigs will become a rare thing.

How do we know we are post pandemic?

So far, our guidance has been as long as you don’t have to work in a SCIF, and your work is predominantly head-down pumping out analysis, you can be at home. The only time you would need to come in would be for Client Meetings/presentations or other collaborative activities that are just better done in person. With my scope, I anticipate being in the office 2-3 days a month.

Apparently, nobody will have a permanent office going forward.

Granted, this could all change tomorrow.......

Hi folks,
I have 2 offers and both companies. Both are offering remote positions

There are only a few reviews on glassdoor and abitionbox to consider them authentic (maybe fake reviews).

Does anyone have any idea about these companies? Or what do you suggest.

Question re: salary. I’m thinking about accepting an offer at a small (4-6 attorneys) transactional firm. I would primarily be working on NDAs for clients. The role sounds great (no billable hours, fully remote, flexible hours/ can work from anywhere); however, the salary is $70K. I’m a new attorney, with only one year of experience. Does this salary seem low? If so, any advice on what someone in my position should ask for?
