What's your firm's policy on remote work going forward? My firm "asks" to work 2-3 days from the office starting in September and through the end of 2021. We do not know yet the firm's plan for 2022 onwards.

Firm hasn’t said anything other than we need to all “do the right thing” after we get vaccinated and spend more time in the office. I’m guessing most people will WFH once a week going forward. I plan to do more and will lateral if told to come in more.

Supporting fully remote here. Sent out survey to everyone with some implications that if you are remote or otherwise don’t plan to come in all the time, though, you may have to use a temporary (i.e., hoteled) office if coming in.

Anyone know DLA’s policy? Interviewing now

WFH until at least the Fall. After that, not sure

It depends on the practice group for my firm. I'm in the labor and employment group and we only have to go in 2 days per week. For the remainder of the week, we can choose to work from home or work in the office.
