Our head honchos want each of us committing 10-12 hours each weekend on deal work but then also ask us to come to the office 5 days a week. Isn’t this a bit unreasonable? The one-way drive for most of us is 25-30 miles and it really makes inefficient use of your workweek time.

Why don’t you move closer to the office or get a job closer to your house then?

A place close to the office would essentially be half of my disposable income. We are pretty badly under market here.

You work in IB, it’s somewhat expected

Par for the course in IB.

honestly, F IB bro. 10-12 hrs on the weekend is beyond unreasonable unless you’re at the near finish line of a deal. Unsustainable otherwise. As you’re like already working 9am - 12am on weekdays

So I've had 2 hiring managers and several recruiters from Amazon reach out to me about applying for some open positions with the company (android).

I'm really not sure how badly I want to work for them and I don't want to be laid off months after being hired on. Anyone know what Amazon hiring is like?
