Yes, it varies project to project, but the work life balance in most practices is very good. WFH doesn’t normally require approval- just be responsible and accessible and no one cares where you are, but Fridays are important to be in the office I joined 6 months ago from an accounting firm and have zero regrets. Feel free to PM me.

We do travel quite a bit. Chicago is our biggest office and we do have a lot of clients there, but it will definitely not be 100% local

Does anyone have ideas on how to navigate a smaller team environment when everyone’s roles seem to be stretched (hiring for additional people has been taking a while, not sure why). The stress causes some tension and that’s probably not great for the overall morale of the company long-term. I try to ignore and just stay focused on what I need to do yet sometimes proves challenging. I worry it might affect my professional/career growth. Thoughts on this would be helpful, thanks!

My partner hates my long working hours.

It is really hard to do well in this business without sacrifice and my partner doesn't like it. To be fair that sacrifice is her... Most nights,over the weekend, and during every meal. She deserves better but I either sacrifice time or sacrifice earning potential.

I don't know how to solve this problem.
