For those who work at Morgan Stanley , back office specifically.. is the 9-5 flexible for you guys, as in getting in at 10 and leaving at 3/4 Or is it strict 9-5? Do they track badge ins and badge outs? How many hours are you required to be in the office?

Project Management. Been there done that but rarely did I only work a 40 hr week. Closer to 50, until I was bumped to a different classification that removed OT pay. Keep your personal boundaries on the OT, if you need to, but please for the sake of your long term career, don’t be that ONE that puts in fewer than 40 unless your contract specifically states your employer has agreed to less, as in a 30 or 35 hr position.

American Employers still believe FT is 40 hrs.

Your future self will thank you if you maintain the weekly 40 and your coworkers will be more agreeable to help you if their workload allows it.

There’s no way you could get away with coming in at 10 and leaving at 3/4. MS internal audit specifically workload is far too heavy to get away with that. Everything is tracked

No way. Minimum hours per day are 10 hours so that is a not a possible scenario in any of the big banks. You can probably do that in small companies but not in MS.

It’s definitely not 10-3/4

I know some groups are 9-5 while others are 8-6. The start is a firm 9/8. Finance requires 3 days a week in office.

Any accounting/finance role requires you to work at least 40 hours a week and in most instances closer to 50 hours a week. A role where you would be working from 10 to 3 would be a part-time role.

I’m not bad with money but definitely lots of room to improve overall, due to several personal factors I don’t want to list in full here (numerous unanticipated medical bills, bad boyfriends, etc.) Hence why I only have $3k in savings right now. My first mini goal is to have $5k saved by the end of December. I need motivation and words of encouragement. If I pay off my medical bills, I won’t make my goal. I have to start putting saving money first. Getting depressed about my situation.
