How to ask them to consider wfh to me?

Ask hr to mention the same like WFH in otter letter. There are recent cases where verbal promises were broken lately

Unless you get it written in offer letter, you can't depend on it.

Problem is even if some company says work from home, they will likely squeeze in the line -"as per policy, company may ask you to", the same happens with work location - companies used to give desired location, but they always retain right to ask employees to shift - and they try to enforce it only when you have to go to a different project and no project in base location etc. Same could happen even if given in writing.

Going forward , it will be hybrid model . No one is going to gìve you permanent wfh.

Hi guys I am posting this again I have offer of almost same package from Accenture and IBM . Accenture offering is very slight more but that's not my key consideration. Which company is better in terms of job security, work life balance. That's the top most factor I am considering. Learning and project and latest niche technology is the other important factor after first 2 factors .
