Executives at US financial firms say they would quit if they had to return to the office full-time.
They want to work remotely but are worried that it will impact their careers negatively.
Others believe their in-office peers are paid more, promoted more often, and more likely to become CEO.

Executives at major financial institutions are so keen on remote work that they'd quit if they were forced to return to the office five days a week, a new report by Deloitte found.
