Pre-covid, it was almost 100% travel. They do a lot of work related to synergies and standing up businesses. I’m sure they do other work as well but from FDD perspective that is what I have primarily seen when working with them. Seems like interesting work but even pre-covid it was an exhausting lifestyle.

From my understanding - outside of traveling - WLB is relatively good at EY TSE (~50/week).
