Bay Area office for a SoCal based company with other offices scattered around the US. I work from home M-Th and go into the office on F. While WFH, I usually start around 8:30 so I can get emails and stuff out of the way before our standing 9:00 sprint meeting. I have quite a bit of flexibility on when I take lunch (some times I eat at my desk while working, some times I eat in the living room watching tv). I wrap up my day around 6ish. Often I am multi-tasking between work and cooking dinner between 5-6. On Fridays I usually try to get in before 8 because parking is cheaper if I enter before 8. Group lunch is usually about an hour (give or take... depending on how many people are there). I usually leave around 3-4. My boss understands my commute isn't great (neither is his) so he's cool with me cutting out a little early on Friday. He does too. He also works from home most days. If he isn't going to be in on Friday, then I usually don't go in either. My boss is big on letting your work product show how much you're working. As long as I'm getting my crap done, he doesn't really care if I take a 3 hour lunch and then work at 9PM. Most of the team I work with is spread out, with only three in our office. So working from home is not much different than working from the office. Even at the office, meetings are online, taken at my desk. (Which is weird some times since my office is right next to my boss's office and I can usually hear him through the wall half a second before I hear him on the call.) But it is nice to get some face time with my boss (and coworkers from other teams I'm not on) once in awhile. |
