Analyst 2 here - just starting to model. Did you feel overwhelmed when you just started modeling ? I really do and I can’t help beating up myself, cause some things seem so logical when they’re pointed out to me, but not when I’m building it… My VP / asso are new hires and not sure they realize I did 0 modelling ever since I joined, they are expecting a fully independent A2..

Yes - it’s a trial by fire. Just need to spend a LOT of time trying to summarize what’s going on to always check what’s happening in the model. And you will never have everything 100% right

Asking for wife who's also in banking. If she got ~$100k in signing bonus in 2019 for 1 year commitment in CA and started FT in July 2020, assuming she leaves before July 2021, can her employer claw back full amount in California? Some say it's much tougher to do so under CA law but wonder if anyone has any insights. Banks won't likely care about analyst signing bonuses, but associate bonus at EB with diversity bonus can be significant. If she quits before, she won't be going to another bank.
