Similar to above.
M-W: 9-12/1am
Th: 9-6/7
F: 9-4/5
- 15mins breaks to get lunch (I would eat while working so no break)
- 30ish mins for dinner, sometimes 45 if a relaxed night
- Would ping my team if I needed to do a #2 (eg need a bio break) since I’d be away from my desk for more than 15ish mins.
Managers would be quite toxic, was verbally berated/yelled at many times in front of the team.
Camaraderie very high as everyone is trauma bonded.
You live in a magical fantasy land then lol. Even very standard, non impressive 9-5 jobs don’t accommodate getting out of work at 3pm
WLB is probably among the worst of any firm. Typical hours for me were:
M-W: 9am - 12am
Th: 9am - 6pm
Friday: 9am - 5pm
I worked < 5 hours total on the weekends in my 3 years there. Weekend work is surprisingly well protected considering how bad the WLB is
Exits are mostly corp strat. MM PE is also possible but less common
Associates tend to be really close with each other given how tough the job can be at times
I won’t lie, it’s not an easy place to work but I appreciated my time there. Learned a lot, got a great exit, and made a bunch of friends
It’s close to MBB hours but worse pay and exits. That’s why I never got the appeal of working there.
It’s the best of times, it’s the worst of times
