Pros: I like the official hybrid model, getting a couple of WFH days a week. It helps avoid the daily commute into Boston, MA. You can often choose which days you're in, which is a decent perk for an investment firm.
Cons: However, those WFH days aren't always respected, especially if you're on a client-facing team. There's an unspoken expectation for more office presence as an Investment Analyst, which can limit true work flexibility. Sometimes it feels like you're just WFH to catch up on email after hours.
Advice to Management: Management should enforce the stated hybrid policy more consistently across all teams, especially for junior Investment Analysts. True flexibility means managers trusting their teams to deliver regardless of location, rather than relying on office presence.
