Do you listen to music while working? I know it looks completely unprofessional, but honestly working in front of the computer all day needs just a little something extra. About half the analysts I work with do and half dont.
How much is that frowned upon where you work? And what are you listening to right now?

Analyst got fired about a year before I got to the bank for playing poker online. No idea how he got around the blockers, but a VP walked by and told him to come to his office. 10 minutes later his stuff was off his desk.
I remember one time getting so overloaded I took more adderall than I needed to, rolled up my sleeves and had the headphones in on full blast. I could see people walking by being like wtf is he doing. Didn't care, most productive day/night of my life.
It is what it is

Don't use headphones. If an MD is yelling at you from the hall you want to hear him. That said, we were allowed to listen to music after 7, nobody really cared.
An MD I worked with in the summer used to listen to 50 cent on his iPad all day everyday. It was the most bizarre thing I've ever seen in banking, he'd randomly email me youtube links to new rap songs he'd find too.
