It should be an improvement in WLB. Part of the improvement is the demands are less severe, the entire ‘up or out’ mindset is less prevalent. But there are go-getters who still put in the extra hours. I personally enjoy the freedom to have those extra work hours be optional to get me ahead on work, whereas in consulting / IB they’re not so optional.

Highly dependent on the org and team you end up in. But in general no more than 40 something hours a week. There are definitely people who coast, and can get away with 30 hrs.
