[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Those kinds of hours would be a dealbreaker for me (and I'm hardly super-hands-on as a parent; I leave my child in daycare for 9h a day). [/quote] PP here -- I would add that it may be worth him talking to his boss about it, at least about some WFH options even if they're dead set on long hours. That might not have been a helpful suggestion 2 years ago, but this is post-pandemic life where even senior managers have to deal with the reality of family/life balance. I work in a very traditionally overwork-y industry and my managers have still been very, very accommodating of childcare issues and family needs because the pandemic has laid it bare in everyone's face how much tension there is between long hours and family life with young kids.[/quote] Plus, no one can find experienced workers right now, so he is in a strong position to demand a second WFH day.
