I don't have a fixed time I need to get to work even though the official policy is 8:30am. I generally get in from 10-10:30am unless I have a meeting. Getting to work a little later helps me to avoid the morning commute and allows me to sleep later. However, I find that you generally have to "prove" yourself at a workplace first. Over time, my schedule evolved into something that works for both parties. For example, managers start to realize that I come in late so won't schedule early meetings or interviews. In general, if all they are interested in is a 9-5 bench warmer, then that may not be the best environment to work in either.
