They’re saving money long term. People will leave cities and they’ll adjust their salary and equity to match the city the employees live in.

Yes - they'll save money.

I think it's more favorable for certain roles - engineers, individual contributors. But for client-facing roles, I believe you need to be in-person.
Plus, the collaboration and community that's built in person can't be fully replicated remotely.

Hi Friends,
Me and my girlfriend both live in the same city, working from home, living with our respective families.

Before covid and wfh, we were in gurgaon and we used to go to each other's places to have some "private time"

It looks like a distant luxury now.
Any ideas of what can be done? Anyone facing a similar issue who got any resolution?

Hi fish friends - I’ve been on and off lexapro for five years - my current prescription looks like it’ll end next month and the doctor I got I from didn’t add any new refills. I didn’t love him or the practice and want to find a new doctor close to home (rather than close to work, with WFH still going strong)

Do I schedule another appt with the first guy to keep my pills going? Or let it lapse and get reevaluated by a new doctor?
