Anyone have any idea how a role in Wealth management would be at Merrill Lynch? Just met the SVP randomly when I was picking up food, we started talking about cars and he gave me his contact info & said to reach out. Anyone have an idea on Junior level compensation (1-2 yoe) and what wlb would be like? Merrill Lynch

The new company I’m at now sent me an email from an email address that was HR@companyName.careers saying I was accepted for the position. They gave me paperwork to fill out and sign to accept the position
I fill out the paperwork and send it back to them and it goes through… then a few days later I go back to the email to say something else and I get this…?
Then today I got a check from the company In the mail to setup my home office, and it’s signed by someone I’ve never met before or heard of…?
What…..

Why not?
Not in finance
Just because of the limited trading hours?

No. We don’t have a “pencils down” culture. We have a culture where we respond to that last email at 9 pm. Already we are working more than a 9-5 workweek. There’s 0 chance we decrease the work week to even fewer days
That makes a lot of sense, thanks for your perspective!
IMO no, especially in america.
but i can see a future where we can choose whatever 40hrs / 5 days you work.
um, that is a pretty significant change to flexibility
Nope
Profits. Why reduce cultural norms for work and get 80% theoretical output of 5 days?
If somehow 4 days became the norm, one should also except 80% the pay.
The 5 companies I've worked for have shown no signs of moving toward four days. If anything, job demands expect longer hours.
I was hoping for this in the 90’s when I did work 4-10’s.
I think the new work culture is wfh flex 24/7 with core common hours like 10-2 m- Th for meetings. It pretty much is that anyway
