I'm an associate 2, working a lot, and sometimes sensitive about work politics. My MD often calls my senior analyst for comments on projects instead of calling me - should I be vexed or worried ?

Expectation is that the junior is doing the leg work. They are just going straight to the source vs forcing you to play telephone

Pretty much this, it just draws out the process

Agreed, some people work differently. If he thinks you’re going to process them, he might call you.

But similarly if he’s calling the analyst asking questions on stuff you’ve produced different story

As an analyst, how early should I expect to get to do modelling?
I started a couple months ago and feels like everyone else (MBA associates, experienced analysts) is asked to do the modelling and I haven't been.
I lightly mentioned they don't need to hesitate to give me modelling pieces so I can learn but haven't touched anything yet.
I also get that with a time crunch, it's easier this way.
I'm worried this is a sign they don't trust me and I never will get to do any modelling/will be let go.
