KKR wfh until late fall. Carlyle returning to work. BX returning to work.
Thank god
When are Carlyle and BX returning?
The tuesday after labor day. It's encouraged but not mandatory.
KKR likely to be WFH through the end of the year
Bump
Not until at least late fall but everyone thinks it won’t be until 2021. I know people who are letting their leases expire and airbnbing elsewhere.
October here
WFH recommended through EOY
Bump
For NYC and some other offices Ares is optional work from home through at least end of year though anecdotally haven’t really heard of people going in yet.
Know of plenty of firms (including my own) that aren't mandating anything until next year. No reason to go in at the moment, not hard to do this job remote.
Bump
Never!
Firm is opening offices to return at limited capacity, and is also allowing analysts to wfh permanently if they desire. This is a MM - they figure they can increase headcount while reducing rent expense. Analysts appear to be fine working remotely.
WFH through at least the end of the year.
My firm is saying January
My firm saying Nov. but see that as unlikely
Bump, how will the spike in cases affect the return to office timeline?
