My employer is pretty accommodating so I would just talk to them and they’d do what they could to make it happen short of me getting an office. Even if they don’t seem too accommodating, communication can go a long way. “It would help my productivity if I was able to do/have x,y,z. What can we do together to make this happen or is this possible?”

I’m seriously considering going back to a small business I used to work for. Being in 2 large back to back consulting firms has given me so much anxiety and I’m fearing now depression. I’m so stressed out and drained all the time but everyone says to only make career progressions. And not go back. I know I left for a reason - but that was because I cared more about “prestige” at the time. Now I care for caring companies & work life balance. Agh I don’t know what to do! :(
