Worked remotely for a year. Could've been longer, but I chose to leave. I think it's more realistic if you've worked somewhere, proven yourself, then switch to remote for that same agency. Probably less possible to just get a new remote job.

I'm on staff (NY agency) and work remotely. You can't get it at my agency unless the ECD knows and trusts you. I fly in about every 6 months.We have other remote people - all creative and editorial. I think it would be difficult to be a remote producer and impossible to be remote CS.

Genius. I take it you're studio? I've heard of studio late shifts.

Myth - at least in Germany.

I'm an AD. Mainly banging out wire frames or graphs or concepts. Pretty much anything

I know of a couple people who work remotely full time at our agency. No one minds at all. But they had been here a while before they went remote, and they fly in occasionally.

Accenture India Employees - (1) How much does job location matter in getting good projects for a fresher(ASE- Lvl 12) ?

I am currently in Entry Level Pool-Bangalore and will be 'Soft Locked' to Bench in a month's time. I wish to change my job location to either Indore in MP(top priority) or to Pune(MH).

(2) Should I wait till I get a project in Bangalore and then change location only if WFH gets over (if that is possible) or change it right now ?
(3) Any idea till when WFH will last? Thanks 🙏
