| I work in a non Fed job in DC (I'm here because my husband is a Fed so trying to figure out the lay of the land). We've been desperately trying to get people back to the office for a year or two but our biggest obstacle has been the prevalence of Fed jobs that are remote. No one applies for our non-remote job postings because so many all-remote or mostly-remote jobs are available. So I suspect that even the organizations allowing remote work now might shift over the next year now that this labor competition is gone. (Though many employers will probably continue to allow a day or two of remote work.) |
Only select roles are remote… |

Search this on Reddit, there are people who have compiled lists like this: https://www.reddit.com/r/cscareerquestions/s/k3MGIgZbsg

Only aware of tech companies that are fully remote. See below. Don’t really have knowledge of other industries. Instacart Coinbase Dropbox Airbnb Affirm Atlassian Zillow DoorDash Twilio Spotify |
There are so many! Reddit, Zillow, Affirm, DoorDash, Dropbox, Airbnb, Spotify… just search! |
| I work for one of the companies listed above and can confirm it is great! Fully remote, a few off sites a year, great comp and benefits (like fully paid health insurance for whole family) |

Law firms are RTO a few days a week - but only on paper. No one goes in. Admin needs to go in, but still not full time.
Energy sector has been hopping and is mostly hiring people remote. |
| My company just went to “suggested RTO” 2 days per *month*. Large analytics firm. |
Spoken like a true wife-beater. “Why’d you make me hurt you?” |
While I'm sure you meant this to be as obnoxious as it came out, there are a number of companies listing positions as remote, and then telling you it's in-office when you speak with them. |
| Majority are hybrid which means anything from 1 to 3x per week. I don't know anyone who works 5x week but also dont know anyone who never goes to the office. I work in marketing for a mid size company and have been 2 days a week in the office since 2021. I dont think it's changing. |
Why? My spouse puts in much less time when he's in the office due to the commute. He's also no longer willing to be flexible with early morning or late night calls. You get 8 hours in the office, that's it. Especially given the commute is 60-90 minutes each way. |
Thats because he has set work hours. In person no one is running out the door. I worked in person "at a real job" from 1998-2016. In those 18 years I was in rush hour zero times. We were in office work 11-12 hours a day. I missed rush hour both ways. Most jobs are not by the hour. You leave when work is done and your boss lets you. |
+1. My biglaw firm is 3x/week on paper but walking around the office it's a ghost town. |
I’m full remote at a biglaw firm. Negotiated it when I started. Not sure that will fly now with the many people on the market, but even when I was 3 days it was very flexible on days, hours in the office (I always left early to get home for kid stuff and then worked after/during), etc. |
