Do associate get more decent working hours?

by BanKing (Monkey, 45 Banana Points Points) on 5/29/06 at 10:59am

After two years of hard working as an analyst, followed by an MBA, can I expect more decent working hours (getting week ends off, at least some of them)? And are the wroking hours more decent in the Bay area vs. NYC??

did the associates you worked with while you were an analyst get the kind of hours you expect now? that should answer your question...

i think hours for associates get significantly better as you spend more time there and get more power in terms of delegating tasks.

bay area should be a little better, depending on which bank. MS Menlo has it pretty rough but is a really good shop.
