Was CDD work as bad, i.e. long hours, before WFH or clients and teams would assume you had a life past a certain time before the pandemic? How much of it is the nature of the clients/deals vs WFH making it harder to set boundaries? Trying to see if I can do this long term.

Clients definitely took advantage knowing we were at home 24/7, literally any hour of any day was fair game. Waking up to those email notifications every morning…. 😵‍💫 developed a little anxiety from it all. Ended up switching firms so doing much better now

How did switching firms help? Are you still doing CDDs?
