Is your firm requiring you to be in the office on your anchor days (excluding Monday of course) despite the insanely cold weather and you're part of a support, non-client facing function? If not, please share the name of your firm. That might be where I need to be 😆.

Depends on your manager. Our group has 3 teams and 2 of the managers tell their team to use their best judgement and don’t ask questions. The 3rd will tell you be in the office or use PTO. Cold weather, ice/snow is no reason to WFH.

The 3rd also comes into work sick with the flu, coughing/sneezing all day and expects the team to all sit in a conference room with him for a team meeting.

We’re lucky as we only go in the office on a Tuesday and Thursday and the other 3 days WFH. Lots of Companies locally are either all back to the office now or only 1 or 2 days working from home . I get more done at home lol !

Nice!

My workplace is really strict about us being in the office and never working from home. They won't even give us a reason why, it's just "policy." The cold would be the last reason they ever let us stay home lol.

Lol, same at Barclays. Traveling into the office for a day filled almost entirely with virtual calls feels a bit counterintuitive 🙄oh well...

What’s an “anchor” day?

Ahh gotcha

I recently had an initial interview for a technical recruiter position. The guy on the phone stated that this is not a 9-5 job and long hours are expected. I proceed to ask how much PTO is offered and he said that is not recommend within the first 6 months of working and the harder you work the more PTO you receive. From that conversation, I saw instant red flags. Any thoughts?

Due to a family situation we are looking to move to a different state. Normally we would sell our current home and buy a new home in our new location.

We are moving from Vegas to Sacramento and we are not sure how long we would stay in the new area. Thoughts?

Is IB worth the sacrifice of WLB? Obvious pay is really good but are the prestige and pay worth it if you’re planning on only doing it for a couple years?

Currently working at an IRA with great WLB. Honestly I love my job, the firm, and people I work with.

Also doing MBA part time at a T15 school. Thinking about switching to IB but I’ve done my research and I think I would burn out of IB in two years but I might be ok with that for the opportunities after.
