Probably depends on your friend's location and the number of companies he's interviewing with.
I'm single, but at my company (at least on my team) the start and end hours are pretty flexible as long as you're getting work done. For instance, I generally get in about 10-15 minutes before 9AM, and then I can usually leave either around 4:25PM or 5PM (depending on which train I'm taking back home) and I'll take a 30-60 minute lunch break.
I know not all companies are so flexible, but I'm sure there are still quite a few that are.
- marianov 10y agoYou are doing 9 to 5 and being allowed to eat. Where is the flexibility? That's normal office hours. As a manager I considre flexible to allow people in or out or WFH as long as they put some solid hours every day and deliver. If it works for the project and the company allows it I have no problem with WFH. I've met too many managers who say they have flexible schedules when they mean "sure, go home an hour early today, you can go one hour later tomorrow". Man hour accountants.
- spike021 10y agoWell, not really? A full time day is typically 9 hours with one hour of unpaid lunch and maybe two 15 minute breaks (at least I think that's the California law). What I described is basically an 8 hour day including a lunch break. As far as WFH, I mean, the poster didn't mention that explicitly. If it comes to that, for my team we can WFH if needed without advance notice and if anything comes up during work hours we're able to leave for the errand or need, even for an hour or two, without being required to "make up" the time per se. As long as we are getting work done, etc.
