Regardless if you wfh or in person, do you feel like you ca leave during the day to run a quick errand or go to a doctor’s appointment? I can’t imagine not having the flexibility.

Thankfully in my new company, yes. I was expected to be chained to my desk at my previous one — it was ridiculous.

No. My group was told that SkanAI is being installed. As a result, there is no flexibility at all- just continuous monitoring. SMH

That’s why you get a hybrid job culture. You don’t work for a fully remote company and expect not to be monitored if you’re anything other than the VP or higher.

I have a good team, so I can go out for a bit todo some personal things. I don’t do it often, but I do have that flexibility.

Generally yes

Yes. My boss is very understanding about us all having lives outside of work. Not an issue as long as it's not a daily occurrence.

That’s great!

Definitely. If it will take more than an hour, I typically give my boss a heads up.

If you don’t, you should reconsider moving to the 21st century. Unfortunately most companies haven’t. If you’re effective, your job should expect at max 30 hours. If you’re work is done, your manager expects you to know how to play the game from there.

Sorry but no one in an indirect overhead role should be working 50 hours a week except during close

Need career advice. Trying to break into a finance role, preferably an Analsyt role but I have no transferable experience.
