ER Pulse Check... How We Doing?

How we doing, fellow cost center workers (obvious joke)? Earnings is almost over for most (I believe) so some of use might be getting our lives back together for the next couple months until this wave starts over again for Q2. Have we looked into other industries? Planning on starting coverage? Overall pulse check...

Got like a 2 week break before Extel starts which is a mini earnings season itself…..this earnings was good though despite all of the outside noise. Last year has been anything but normal so was nice to finally have some clean beats and not have to scramble/panic when everyone is blowing up and asking you why hahaha

 

Did not realize it was that bad. I've spent my entire career on buyside in LO, so probably don't have an appreciation for the sell-side transition. Though even switching from my first shop to second, that was a multi year process. If you are willing to try for a few years, could be worth. If burned out, can totally understand switching. If this path ends for me at some point, will probably do something more chill in corporate or startup
