Is it common to work from your home office for months. Joined 9 months ago and been doing short term projects from the office for the last 6 months. Am I missing out on the experience of being onsite?

I’m a single mom. My manager is 65 & no kids & once or twice has made offhand comments. Eg on Presidents Day she was angry as both I & the tax preparer who works in my team asked to work remote as there was no school that day. Generally my employer (I am in industry) has been very flexible over working remote during this Covid time. It got me wondering if being a single mom is going against my career too. I am probably overthinking it but would welcome thoughts from single & moms with partners.

Analyst here (graduated 2020 and started working virtually during pandemic wfh). Sharing that mutual jaded feeling with many other analysts about working a job we didn’t sign up for in 2019. All of the long hours, no worthwhile training/development, no feeling of community, and none of the promised benefits of consulting. Trying to understand the reasons to stay in consulting - if you’re experiencing the same, what benefits/reasons would make you stay for ~2 years at your firm?

I am looking to go back as a part-time contractor (20 hours a week) from Sept 1-December 17, 2021.

Will this impact my ESOP payout if I go back as a temp/contractor?
