We're all so stressed out but why? Is it the hours, lack of leadership, job stability, high-expectations?

Being surrounded by equally type-A people as well as all the things you listed? I'm confused of whether you are asking a question or just stating why banking is stressful

@MG1 mate it sounds like you need therapy. That's not a normal amount of stress and bitterness, even in this job.

At work...there is no meritocracy. You have people irresponsible people getting promoted. You have people who dont treat people like people.

At home you have a wife you just cant get a long with who you cant divorce yet as its too much hassle and also you have a child

To top it all, you are fresh and smell like heaven but have to sit next to a garbage can of a person who does not know what basic hygene is

Hey! I've always wanted to get into IB (prestige, money, you name it), however now that I'm in a more laid back environment (better WLB, "easier work") it doesn't seem as attractive as before and the pay is quite good for an analyst level (I think the pay is competitive even comparing with IB's pay in my country) . I wanted to know if anyone had the same experience and what were your thoughts (pursue an MBA and leave your comfort zone and "good pay" or just stick with it). TIA!
