Honestly the whole “FDD hours are insane” thing is false. Yes people work a lot, but I joined FDD from Audit in May and my hours have been far better. In audit, I was minimum 50s from October-December. Minimum 55s from January to March (ramping up to 70s in March). And then back to minimum 50s from April - end of May. FDD is leagues better.

The expectations, from what I’ve experienced, are that you’re always available. Not quite the same thing as always working or even always at your computer
Hours are unpredictable for sure, which is different from audit. Audit you know what projects you will be on, and when/what to expect busy season. FDD- you just don’t know. For instance, just worked 3 weeks straight including 12 hr/day weekends for a sell side project that’s decided they want to accelerate timeline. It’s more interesting work, there’s also a ton more deals happening so everyone is hyper busy(been like this since Covid hit summer 2020).
Literally made a post about this. I’m in the same situation but an associate. I took the FDD offer. The opportunity just seems to good. You’ll end up learning way more than audit and it’s going to be worth it. Also people tend to exaggerate things online
