I just started “Out of Office: The Big Problem and Bigger Promise of Working from Home” by Charlie Warzel and Anne Helen Petersen. Oof. I have definitely been duped by office “perks” and employee wellness programs. Makes me very happy to now be working for myself. Any thoughts on this book?

Hi Fishes,

Is Deloitte India mandatorily asking 2 days hybrid work from office? or it's complete work from home??

What is EY’s WFH policy post Covid? I’ll be joining the firm and want to gauge the office (especially decision makers) views on teams’ working flexibility. Will be in the ATL office if that helps

Do any of you work in a different country than your company is based? I would love to eventually work internationally (based in the USA), ideally remote, but I’m not sure how realistic it is for most people

Also unfortunately I don’t code so a programming jobs are out of the question, and I know many of those jobs are easily worked remote/internationally

I’ve been with my current company for a little over 5 years now and since the start of the pandemic have been WFH. I absolutely love WFH and have always wanted a position in which I could WFH. There is talk of bringing everyone back to the office full time and that’s not what I would like to happen. I’ve been searching for a new position in which it would be a remote role. My current company also said I am maxed out in term of what they are willing to pay salary wise.

Do anyone know what are the wfh kits will be provided by Hexaware for experienced employees who is joining newly to organization?
Any ideas?
