Absolutely despise going into the office
100% convinced this is a just a control tool to make sure juniors do nothing else in their lives except dedicate every single hour to the job. Are we really all going to put up with 5 days back in the office?
.
Agreed. Just seems like our industry does not want to evolve but you are right there is always the option to leave
Can we all say thank you to capitalism in gratefulness that we’re not criminally prosecuted for quitting? Thank you capitalism. Can I get a thank you capitalism in chat
more than once a week is too much (sometimes i may want to come in more which is fine).
theres just some weeks/days I really dont want to come in if you know what I mean. deal is getting annoying. seniors are being insufferable. sometimes I just want to be home and work vs putting on a good face in the office.
either way, on days Im mandated to come in, ive been ducking out at like 1pm anyways. make it a point to chat everyone up in the morning, stop by Mds offices for huddles, eat lunch with the team etc....
How often are you guys mandated to come in per week?
3 days
5 days a week is actually stupid and no one in IB or really any area of finance should have mandated 5/week
that said, as someone who worked all of COVID - fully remote or very heavily skewed hybrid is also not great, it makes it so much harder for your new joiners to learn and meetings/huddles are much less efficient on zoom, and I think 3 days/week is a good balance. Wish banks would do it as 3 days on average - i.e. if you're getting killed on a deal and are in office 7 days one week, you can take the next week WFH. Having set days to come in is not great given hours/lifestyle
So much more efficient and enjoyable to be in the office 4-5 days a week ~10am-6pm. Much rather walk up to someone’s desk to ask a question than to call them a bunch of times, also prefer to banter around with colleagues than watch Netflix while receiving comments every 20 minutes at home.
Personally I love WFH and it's one of the big reasons im contemplating a move out of finance.
