You can leave at 4 too! Just need to put in your hours later from home.

Don't judge someone just coz you see them leaving at 4. I usually do the few times I am in the office to beat traffic. By no means does that denote when I stop work for the day.

Or started really early or have late night calls?

Not really, I think everyone acknowledges that our projects sometimes get really crazy and people need a break once in a while. So it wasn't viewed negatively. But it is definitely considered a break - so don't expect a promotion or superlative bonuses in the year you do this.

I usually try to step out early to beat traffic, get my workout in, and then work late

Yeah, all good points

SC1 - wish we could... but need to work from here till pretty late, at least for this project

OP - if you really need a break though, consider a tour of duty with one of the internal teams. I know a friend who was close to breaking down on a really crazy project, and HR helped her find a brief internal stint with IFS. It was a good break and she was feeling so much better when she returned to client service after 6 months.

S& switch with me.

Pwc1 - good idea. Do you know if that was viewed negatively at all by her group?
