I have been working @ GS in structured finance for 6 months. I am not passionate for the job and I don’t see myself working in the long run in a job that is stressful and not flexible WFH. Can anyone recommend other jobs not in a bank ?

It may be difficult to find wfh jobs in current market.

In general, Corporate FP&A or Commercial Finance may be less stressful depending on the company.

These stressful roles (if FO) really start paying off big time after a few years but you will need to put in time.

If you want work life balance then check out insurance companies. We went back to hybrid 2 days a week, but even that is flexible depending on your manager. Some people are 100% remote. It all depends on the manager.

Has GS made any suggestions they may return to hybrid again?

Lol no. They were the ones leading the rto movement during covid

Should I disclose or hide the fact that I am on maternity leave? I have an interview with a big law firm in NY. I’m currently working for a law firm in Atlanta. I imagine I will be asked whether I have returned to the office or working remotely from NY. My husband and I have been living in New York since the pandemic to be near family. My current firm asked everyone to go back last week but since I am on leave I didn’t have to. I want to avoid lying without jeopardizing my chances.

It’s looking like my job is gonna start asking us to return to the office. We have an open office plan and before we wfh FT I would save all my work for my telework days bc I can’t get shit done in the office. I’m having major anxiety about them making this decision. I know I’m not alone that people don’t want to return to the office. My ADHD and the open office just makes working from the office a nightmare and I’m feeling really nervous and kind of resentful.

Any advice?
