Yes I went to corp dev at a F20 company and came back. Too much corporate bs and M&A being stonewalled due to no business unit leaders wanting to take on more responsibility, etc. I realized I liked executing on deals a lot more.

I’m four months into my job and I got put onto a PIP. I worked so hard to break into IB, put up all the hours and even working 2am nights for weeks, learned a ton, and improved a lot along the way as the sole analyst yet this happens. I’m extra worried because it doesn’t seem there’s IB analyst positions out there. Im really hoping come January more positions come up but I’m just praying they don’t fire me until then. Anyone have general tips for this situation?
