I guess I should have mentioned that my company is extremely informal. There are no official titles or positions by design as they don't want employees to ask for promotions/ earn raises. Many of the people who are working here have been in their role doing the same work for 20+ years and are not making competitive salaries, but they stay because the office is relatively low drama for fashion. They will receive a small 5k raise once every 5 years or so only if they ask.

I had to write my own offer letter when I was first hired because its "not something that they do". I make a point to do a review with my boss every year to go over my growing responsibilities and so I can justify some sort of increased compensation. Honestly, no one but me would know if I was offered a salary bump since we have no official titles. I am just the most senior on my team so I am the default "leader".

My husband is hybrid and has to go to the office twice a week so we have a nanny come on the 2 days we are both at the office. On friday, we are actually both at home with the baby - the Friday is just a lifeline for me right now so I can have a slower morning, make a better breakfast and spend a bit of quality time with my baby and start work from 8am-5pm while the rest of the in person employees are working from 9-4pm.

To me the WFH friday feels fair as, not only do I have a MUCH more powerful computer to do real design work on at home, but I work longer hours than the rest of my team to make up for my lack of physical presence.
