At Fidelity, our goal is for most people to work flexibly in a way that balances both personal and business needs with time onsite and offsite through what we're calling 'Dynamic Working'. Most associates will have a hybrid schedule with a requirement to work onsite at a Fidelity work location for at least one week, all business days, every other week. Legal associates are expected to come into a Fidelity work location on off-weeks as needed for specific matters. These requirements are subject to change.
