[quote=Anonymous]I’m a private sector lawyer and we are allowed to work from home two days a week. I’m also expected to work overtime for no additional pay when it’s needed for the job, or to drop everything for a deadline if needed. There are people at my firm who come in less but they get their work done and that’s fine, they aren’t given a hard time. It’s standard in the industry. I thinking general fed attorneys make significantly less money than private sector attorneys do, also. But anyway, working from home sometimes has been a fairly standard benefit in the legal industry, post Covid. After all, we kept the industry afloat working from home 5 days a week for two years during Covid. We kept everything going at a normal pace of work even though for me it meant working til 1am a lot to get my assignments in while my kid did school from home. Folks realized you don’t need to be in the office 5 days a week for the industry to keep rolling, and that’s the industry standard for lawyers now - telework is offered at least about 2 days a week.

Good luck, folks, hope things works out. [/quote]
