I currently work a 32-hour week while studying part-time, and my team has been really supportive of that setup. Day-to-day flexibility is pretty good - if something comes up like an appointment or a last-minute change, i just give my manager a heads-up. As long as i make up the time, it’s all good. for anything more structured or long-term, like changing my hours for a few weeks, i’d need to get formal approval from our office manager or project lead. Overall, i’ve found the flexibility to be really helpful in balancing work and study
I am able to cater my current schedule to meet my uni requirements and can take time off fairly easily when my responsibilities can be delegated elsewhere. There is a large focus on individual and team safety so working from home is always an option (of my 3 days during the semester i work one from home and 2 in office).
Work hours are mostly fine. I have had to work late to 6:30 multiple times but usually i finish around 5. The extra day off every fortnight is nice. Remote work flexibility varies by team. My current team works from home whenever they want but often say that i should be in the office so that i can be in with them even though they are often at home and don't tell me they won't be in that day.
