So for the sub agency I work at we are technically mandatory tues/wed, but my manager doesn’t care and I go in maybe once a week. Some weeks I don’t go in, some I go in twice.

For Edelman proper it’s “mandatory” 3 days a week but from people I’ve talked to they still only come in once or twice a week. Know it could probably depend on the team, but can say they for sure are having a hard time getting people to actually come in so in general teams do seem relaxed about it. From what I’ve seen we all have people located in different offices on our teams, or work on projects with teams in different offices, so it doesn’t feel like people care much about in person. They aren’t technically tracking for now, currently you just have to check a box on your time sheet that says you were in for the mandated in office time (traveling for work counts, same for if you were out sick or told your boss you needed to wfh for xyz reason you still can check the box)

When you say your salary jumped __x, how is that exactly calculated?

Mine was $16k (minimum wage before joining corporate) > $40k (contractor total before getting laid off) > $150k (current FT)?

Is that a 260% jump or 2.6x from $16k to $40k?
And a 375% jump or 3.75x from $40k to $150k?

Or do I calculate it by hourly rate?

Can someone explain how billable hours work? At a new agency and although I had to fill timesheets at my previous agencies, they were mainly used to ensure we weren’t over servicing a client/for setting the appropriate retainer for contract renewals. I asked ppl at my agency but haven’t gotten a proper explanation. I get the impression that billing to the agency admin code isn’t recommended, and my manager said he bills everything to client codes, but that doesn’t make sense to me .
