When are bankers returning to the office?
Hi everyone,
Just wanted to get some insights/opinions/insider information on:
- When are bankers returning to the office?
- How long is WFH going to last?
I think many incoming analysts and/or junior level bankers would like to get at least an idea.
Thanks a lot!
Sincerely hoping for somewhere in September. Completely done with this WFH
At BB in LDN. We have received guidance recently that it will be highly unlikely for our team to return to the office before late September.
4Q at best is what we're hearing although there is certainly a lot of interest in people wanting to go back sooner. No one wants to wear a mask in the office. How can you take a call wearing a mask?
RBC is planning for September (at least for Canada)
I know my bank has been sending around surveys to see who's concerned / what makes people feel safe / etc, but no specific guidance for NY. My guess is probably in the July time frame, though technically bankers are essential workers in NY (lol) so they can make us do whatever they want.
They've also sent people back to the office in two-week shifts in some of the less urbanized cities (e.g. Houston, Charlotte).
After Labor Day
Barclays sent out an email saying that minus traders, the majority of US, UK, and India should expect to be home until the end of September.
do you mean all st&t including sales and middle office markets groups or just traders?
Didn't specify.
so when are traders back in the office? before or after september?
before, as stated above.
Ive heard its bank dependent, and even when it does open again itll be rotating anyways, so you might only be in the office 3 days/wk.
For London I believe August/September will be the start of the transition to work back from offices, but there may not be a full 'return' to the office ever.
Really no full return to the office?
My bank also says around early September - as lets face it August is slow thus no need to rush back into the office then.
In New York City, I think it'll be by the end of July
based on the above posts, this is clearly not true
Work at an EB. Definitely not able to go back into the office until after Labor Day, and no one will hold it against you if you go back to the office until 2021.
