   1 flagged finding: an anonymous unverified quote attributed to an unverifiable 'Principal engineer, financial services' with a included an unverified dollar figure.

   Before

   "I negotiated my hybrid schedule from three days in-office to two days in-office by framing it around productivity and commute cost. The company saved nothing on my request - it's just a schedule preference. But it was worth about $3,000 annually in commute costs and two hours a week in time. That's worth asking for." - Principal engineer, financial services

   After

   Consider a candidate who negotiates their hybrid schedule from three days in-office down to two by framing the request around productivity and commute cost. The company loses nothing by granting it since it is simply a schedule preference, but it can be worth a meaningful amount annually in commute costs and hours of saved time each week. That kind of low-cost, high-value request is worth asking for.

   Why: Converted an anonymous unverified quote attributed to an unverifiable 'Principal engineer, financial services' with a included an unverified dollar figure into a generic illustrative example with the dollar figure softened to qualitative language.
