I have noticed a lot of law firms are starting to entertain the idea of work from home. My question for the bowl is: Do you take advantage of work from home? Do you see any benefits or disadvantages from working at home?

I WFH one day a week, schedule permitting. Being in the office is good for some tasks and helps in building relationships and mentoring the younger associates, but having one day a week to work on tasks that require good focus is nice. One or two remote days a week is a perk firms can offer employees without having to pay anything, so I think more should be in favor of it.

I like having a hybrid option because I do think collegiality is much easier to form in the office. But, I enjoy working from home 1-2 days a week. A nice break

Recommendations for firms to look into in South FL? I'm in Ft. Lauderdale but am open to Boca or Miami. I'm a first year associate in ID (coverage issues) but really would prefer transactional work. More importantly though, I'm looking for companies who pay relatively well (doesn't necessarily have to be market), are open to remote/hybrid work, aren't sweatshops. I'd settle for insurance work if theres good WLB & $$$ lol
