So all of my information is second hand from people I know who have left to go do it, but they tell me they feel like they have more WLB than transactional tax at a firm because there isn’t pressure to bill hours. But it’s still tied to the timeline of the transaction, so there are still some late nights/weekend work depending on what’s going on with the deal. My friend who is a broker seems to like it though. She said that if you’re a broker in particular there’s a fair bit of traveling involved.
