How flexible is your company when it comes to hours?
I feel like I have lost a large part of my personal life and has been a hard adjustment. I work 8 to 4.30, which is longer than a 9-5.

I work 8am-4:30pm having two 30 minutes break throughout the day. People can work flexible hours that suits them. I am allowed to come in early or later as long as I make the 8 hours working mark.

The hours are relatively flexible, provided you are meeting the 40 hours per week requirement

Depend on the team you join. But for my team we are pretty flexible that you can come at 8am and leave at 4:30pm. Or come at 10am and leave at 6:30pm. But please let your leader know your regular schedule.

Hours aren't too flexible in my position. My position requires lab work and collaboration which means that standard work hours are required. 40hr work week is fairly standard, however my position doesn't have many work from home solutions.

Very, as long as you do the correct number of hours you can be flexible to what works best

Monday to Friday: 8:00/8:30 - 4:30/5:00

In terms of hours, I think the biggest things for the company is that your work is getting done and you are doing about 40 hours. I know the company is quite flexible around people arriving earlier and finishing earlier (and vice versa).

Flexible about breaktimes and work hours etc. but not a huge amount of flexibility with regard to working from home.

Relatively flexible - the ability to work from home is great when it comes to appointments. There is also a high level of trust in the office, you are trusted to be fulfilling the hours you are contracted to and completing the work expected from you.

My company is very flexible with work hours as they allow you to manage your time within reason.

Would be nice to work from home some days, but doesn't feel like that is encouraged
Graduate, Dunedin
Very flexible hours. Some people start at 7 while other start at 9. Its just about achieving 40 hours
Graduate, Dunedin
I tend to come in anytime from 8am-9am, then leave around 4:30pm -5:30pm. It is generally flexible.

Mon-Fri 8 am to 4:30 pm. Company is somewhat flexible when it comes to hours - depends on your Functional Leader. Possible to start later/earlier or leave work to go to an appointment/lunch date and catch up on those lost hours later.

Typically 8am to 4:30pm with lunch, morning tea and afternoon tea breaks. FPA are fairly flexible with working hours, it just requires communication with your team leader.

9am-5.30pm or 9.30am-6pm (8+ full working hours per day), although sometimes this has been running over time by 30 min since my team is busy on NPIs. Work is in-office, but the hours are shifted to avoid the commute. Working from home some days is an option, but I prefer to work in office. Flexible so long as I work the full hours, the work is done, and I'm available for all meetings and discussions (including informal collaborative chats).
Graduate, Auckland
Work 8 - 8.5 hours a day. Very flexible what times I can come in which is good for me as it allows me to miss the traffic.
Graduate, Auckland
I have found it pretty flexible in terms of office hours. As long as I get my 40 hours in and work done, start and finish times each day are flexible to an extent. Required to be in the office through the busiest part of the day. Limited flexibility to work remotely.

Likes consistency within induvial hours.
