  • 347. ‘Four days in the office is not a hybrid job’

    Hey huns! 💖


    This week we're talking about the trending debate on X after a man turned down a £15,000 pay rise because the new role required him to be in the office four days a week. https://x.com/6illy___/status/2085363838640087078  


    We're also discussing Jas balancing the cost of her daughter's social life, and whether remote work is really a "career killer" following Emma Grede's comments. Vic shares why remote working has been amazing for her and why different working styles suit different personalities.
