I don't really care when you start. Get your work done, be available for scheduled calls/meetings, and respond when I IM or call you. I don't understand the obsession some managers have with hours.

like

I start at 9 at home. Keep in mind I'm sure you don't take many breaks throughout the day, no hour lunch, and work later

Depends on when the client expects you to be working. Or when the manager expects you to be working.

So yes, 8. If you really want to negotiate, ask if you can do 9. If s/he still says no, that's what you follow

Start at 8 but end one hour earlier than usual

Are you kidding me?!? I would kill to start working at 8am.

What time are you expected to work A4?! Are you on west coast? Most of my cases have been 8:30/9. And 9:30 even on some cases where we were working from BCG office.

I start most days between 6 and 7 regardless of WFH or client site (not counting travel Mondays...those start at 4) and work till usually till 7 or 8pm. Later when WFH.

I start at 430 to stay in line with my client city

The company benefits are decent and I would get stock options, and it's fully remote - if that influences your answer.
