Does anyone here know what WLB is like in EY’s Strategy & Transactions group?

Looking at a Senior Associate role in NYC, wondering what typical hours are like - I’m in a pt MBA program that is two nights a week. Wondering if I will be able to leave on time to make classes those nights

Keep in mind that Strategy and Transactions is not a group but an entire service line. Within SaT you have multiple groups such als Transaction Diligence, Valuation, M&A advisory, Debt advisory, Real estate etc. Hence WLB is really dependent on the group you work in (type of work, but also culture of course).

I work at EY SaT in Europe (M&A advisory), and work around 50 hours a week
