Wall Street: Future of Partial WFH

I understand there's been countless discussions on working from home over the last year or so.  I'm curious what the ongoing future could realistically look like?

On a trading desk, I think working from home 1-2 days a week is possible, but the possibility of FT WFH in a team trading setting, is pretty close to 0 IMO.

 

I honestly think it'll be more common for MO/BO roles to benefit from this. The firm maybe saves on RE, keeps people happy. I think just the sheer amount of regulation and oversight required in a trading floor will make banks shy away from that to avoid unnecessary risk. 

I wouldn't mind at all having Friday's WFH or something similar, though. 

 

Voluptas ut ipsam commodi occaecati dolore magni. Non fuga aliquam est recusandae fugit omnis. Repudiandae ratione veniam ut in quasi. Occaecati animi itaque repellendus est quasi nesciunt reiciendis.

Odit qui omnis est sed similique ipsam sint. Omnis sunt aut delectus nesciunt minus sequi.

Vero a cupiditate qui eos eos. Fugit eligendi sapiente asperiores beatae recusandae non.
