Laptop talk — I know everyone is always saying the Lenovo X1 Carbon is the way to go in IB, but I recently picked up a Lenovo X1 2in1 (used to be called X1 Yoga) and this thing is wonderful! Love the ability to write with the pen in onenote, like the metal case (and I actually prefer a not fully black laptop, so I like the gunmetal), it’s light / small enough to act as a passable tablet, versatile, and of course like any thinkpad, it has the separate page up/down keys. Don’t sleep on the 2in1!

15 years in, and that call to the other two bidding companies never gets easier. Especially on a Friday. To all the Directors, EPs, and reps in here - thank you for what you do.

As an A3, I finally understand why people work so late in busy season. It’s because you don’t get any work done until 6 pm, when the pings and meeting finally slow down. I can’t work on something for more than 10 minutes without something else popping up.

Interesting all the noise about these PPT, my take:

The pandemic took all the upside of an IB analyst life (client meetings in person, fancy trips, suit up, worshiped at networking events) and left all the juniors with the downside (long hours, monkey-like type of job, aggressive work environment).

Not that the complaints are not sort of legitimate but you may need to revise the decision-making process that led you to accept a return offer. Specially if you were looking for less hours.

Public finance exit opps?

What are realistic expectations for 3rd Year Analyst / Direct Promote Associate bonus range at a BB? Note that at MS, 2nd year bonuses in my group last year were 90-115K, while MBA associates received a pro-rated 90K stub (~40k). Personally would be pretty unhappy to take a pay cut between 2nd and 3rd year…
