Do you guys ever feel like our lives are a series of Saturday’s owing to IB? I get torn between taking time to myself and maintaining my social life, too much to cram into one day.

My husband never reads and wants to start reading as a new hobby. What is a good book that you would recommend for a 40 year old man? Not self help books, but maybe something with action. I think he would like the Bourne series, but he saw all the movies so he's not interested, but something similar.

Ive been in a relationship for 7 months. We met 4+ years ago but it didn't go anywhere at that time. We kept running into each other throughout the years and stayed cordial. When we started talking again this time around, I had flat out asked him about many things including education. Contd.

What are some nice ways to friendzone someone? Lol

Anybody else struggling with the fact that nearly all their friends are coupled up?
Not in an envious way. Just... Damn, this sh*t can leave you very alone.

Just some self affirmation. If her fear of commitment lands us not dating, I'll bounce back. I live in one of the most beautiful places in the world, have a loving family and many friends, and a rewarding job that challenges me. I'll rediscover inner peace before I date, and I'll find my long term partner eventually.

Women how would you react to this- I’m talking to a woman with a child. Really into her and we seem to be really compatible. I told her today that I wanted to take care of both her and her child, I invited her and her child out on my boat to go tubing and more. Continue in comments

Say your last day with the firm is in a week and your team tells you that you have to work late this week to meet a deadline. Do you work the overtime or not?

In my 1 year in corporate this is what I have understood.
1. Choose your friends wisely.
2. Focus on skill development.
3. Gossip and office politics are more or less common thing in corporate. We may not avoid it but limit ourselves as much as possible.
4. expect unexpected things.
5. No one really cares for you, so you have to set
your own priority and take decision accordingly.
6. You will understand whether your colleague is actually your friend or not only when you will be on np 😀.

Am I the only one that feels like I’m in an abusive relationship with my job? This job has brought me to lower and lower depths only to pull me up right before I’m about to quit. Kind of worried that this isn’t sustainable.

How many Big Law partners sacrificed their marriage to become partner, and, if you didn’t, how did you pull it off. Almost every partner I have ever worked for has been divorced at least once....

PSA: Buy a house if you are able. I spent the first 5 years in big law annoyed and upset with many things but my life has gotten so much better since I bought a house. I now have a separate office to work from and actually like working from home. I no longer have loud neighbors I share a wall or ceiling/floor with. I have an extra room for my mother in law to stay in and visit my infant child (instead of taking him to her house for visits only once a month). Also no worry about rent hikes.

Skill Interview at Accenture placed me in L6. Did some research and going to ask for $200k base, 20% bonus 20% sign-on bonus. Glassdoor has average at 203k base(1552 salaries). For a Workday Data Conversion Lead Role, I have 6 YOE in Workday, 16 YOE in ERP Implementations. Is this fine or over/under? Currently 180k, 20% Bonus, $5k annual bonus. Workday Dat Conversion Manager/Architect. Work/life is out of balance at current employer. I appreciate feedback.

Hot take: just cuz you’re born in the same family, does not mean you are family. Or that you need to stay in touch. “Oh you have to get along because you’re family” - no. Some of them are toxic af and the trope that families stay together is bs.

And…. Related but not related. Get your will and end of life shit together before you need to.

Any strategists from Siegel+Gale's LA brand strat team open to chat about the agency? Many thanks in advance!

I’m a new analyst at an IB group. I’ve felt that I’ve done well my first month or two and delivered higher quality work, but I feel that lately I’ve been slipping up the past few weeks given the intensity of the deal as well as having multiple peripheral work streams. It also doesn’t help the second year analyst quit so I don’t necessarily have a resource to lean into. (Cont.)

Hey all, anybody knows TC for an Analyst or Senior Analyst at EY Canada in their M&A Capital Markets Advisory?
For context: I’m looking to break into IB and made a connection who referred me to a manager there. Said there’s a great fit and wanted to have a coffee chat.

I had several interviews with Deutsche bank and they have verbally offered the job about 2 months ago. I noticed on Workday Tuesday the status says "offer in progress". In the time between, I did get some calls the offer is still in progress and is slowed down due to manager out of office (among other things). How long should I wait until I need to call back and get an update? And this type of situation commonplace?

I am a new jr. credit analyst at a commercial banking institution. I've been there 2.5 months so far, and feel like I'm doing very well, as does my boss. I do not have a finance degree, but a business admin degree instead. I didn't plan on banking, but I left my prior industry and got this job through someone I know knowing someone at the bank. I'm 24 years old and my business degree is from a very solid business school. What should I be getting paid (salaried)? Curious if I'm being underpaid.

How do you guys describe what you do when you don't want to tell people you're in IB without lying?
