Depending on the amount of deals you have under your belt, analyst 3 (5-10 or less) or associate if you’ve been around longer.

I’m interested. How is the WLB?

Compared to EY FDD, 15-25 hours less a week. Averaging 45-50/week over the past 3 deals I’ve been on so far.

They definitely still embrace the old WS ways of celebrating deals closing with boujie dinners / drinks. Weekly happy hours. But that might be my vertical specially—-haven’t been around long enough to see how other teams celebrate.

Hey all, having issues with interviewing this year. I’ve been passed over every opportunity I really want and I’m unsure how to regroup and move forward.

A lot of my HPLC and LCMS experience is with already established methods. Any tips?

Because I am able to “pick up and go” I’m open to opportunities and locations. I’ve never worked with a recruiter but was hoping I could get some recommendations!

Currently a staff in audit - 6 months in. Glad to be learning a lot, and have had a generally positive experience at the firm other than a few interactions, some tough busy season nights. Really been intrigued by TAS/M&A, however, and had a few convos with a senior in TAS i know at the firm. It’s closer to what I studied, but don’t know how to make the jump as it seems an internal transfer could take 6+months/senior rank and a lot of convincing. Is it better to jump firms/has anyone done this?
