PJT Emails Going Around

https://nypost.com/2020/05/19/wall-st-bosses-expe…

Has anyone seen this? Thoughts? I'm not sure if I was just at a sweatshop, or what, but isn't this baseline? If I was on a live deal, sent a draft to an MD at 1AM, and he responded at 3AM, and I was asleep, I would expect to wake up the next morning to like 10 frantic emails asking me where the next turn is. And I wouldn't in a million years have ever dreamed of sending a draft and then saying "going to bed, lol" without getting chewed the fuck out in less friendly language than in that exchange.

Not saying this is right, or healthy, but this is just par for the course with banking. If you're grinding out a board deck or something, sitting around watching Netflix at 3AM while you wait for MD comments isn't uncommon. Is this just being passed around by people that have never done banking?

 

A psot has been made about this in the IB Forum. Regardless, yes, people will villify the profession and show how bad it is. Remember 08?

Will update my computer soon and leave Incognito so I will disappear forever. How did I achieve Neanderthal by trolling? Some people are after me so need to close account for safety.
