To those currently fully WFH/remote - Realistically, what would it take for you to consider going hybrid?
Pay raise? Reimbursement for commuting costs? Increase in PTO or other benefits?

It would take a ridiculous amount of financial incentive, or having literally no other choice. To be clear, by “having no other choice” I mean there are no remote opportunities in my reach- NOT that my company changed its policy.

Significant pay raise, paid relocation to an area where there is an office (for me and my family), childcare subsidy, additional RSUs.

As the others mentioned— a wild pay increase to make up for the childcare costs and increased commuting/car maintenance costs. I would need a relocation package as well, since I’m in an entirely different time zone, and a support in place to help my husband find a job in the area since his current job only has local offices.

Yeah, significant pay raise. I mean reimbursement for travel costs, considering it would probably be a $70 dollar uber to get to the office both ways would already bump up my pay by $33,600 a year. It would need to be more than that.

What are your strategies for completing work efficiently? How do you figure out how long projects should take? A consistent piece of feedback on my yearly reviews has been that I over-bill & spend too much time on assignments. It’s something I actively work on, but I still have no concrete sense of how long I should spend on basic tasks (e.g., drafting a motion to dismiss). My firm is right to expect that I manage my time better as a mid-level associate. WFH has made my time management worse.
