Friday Culture

I am currently being considered for a position within an MBB firm. Part of the next steps is determining my home office location. I was curious if anyone has any experience what a typical Friday looks like at an MBB firm. Are you expected to go to your home office every Friday? I have experience at a Big-4 consulting firm and I rarely went into my office on Friday. I traveled Monday - Thursday and worked at home on my project or internal projects, typically. Also, are you aware of how easy or hard it is to move office locations, within the United States (say from the Seattle office to the New York City office)? Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks!
