Based on the most helpful WSO content, there are still some banks operating on a hybrid model. For example:

  • William Blair: Operates on a 3-day-a-week schedule (Tuesday to Thursday).
  • Macquarie: Mentioned as still being hybrid by some users.

However, many banks have shifted back to in-office models, with firms like Goldman Sachs requiring employees to be in the office Monday to Friday. The hybrid model is becoming less common, but a few outliers remain.

I used to work at one of the most flexible banks for WFH. Now 4/5 days a week is mandatory. Do not pick a bank because of WFH policy. Furthermore, this is at your manager's discretion. If he/she wants everyone in 5 days a week, it doesnt matter what bank policy is fine with. As an analyst on the desk, it will be strongly frowned upon for you to wfh for at least 7-8 months if not longer, until you get up to speed.

 

Agreed. Especially if you are newer to the team, it’s best to be in the office as much as you can just to be in person if someone needs you and to help get up to speed quicker on how everyone operates.
