I've always worked standard hours for salary, usually 9-5, five days a week. I've heard lately though that four 10's has really been catching on. Does anyone in finance have experience with this? Usually banks have to be open 5 days a week and so its pretty hard to do in our industry.

We're still 9-5, 5 days a week. I would love to give 4x10 a try. Seems like a very fair tradeoff to make for consistent three day weekends.

I like the idea. It just wouldn’t work with a lot of industries that are already set up on that 5-day workweek schedule.

Everything is already set up a certain way, so I do understand the difficulty that especially larger corporations would have.

We’re still 5 days a week, but since I live a time zone behind my team, my hours are more like 7-3:30

I applied to a job at KPMG and did the first two rounds of interviews, general interview, then case study and competency. Never before have I had such a positive feedback at the end of an interview of the 2nd, both said really like me, I did well etc.
It's now been 3 weeks since the interview and I still haven't heard back from the team other than the odd HR email saying they are following up with them. Is there something going on internally, I.e hiring freeze in the London office atm?
