Is this very common in your groups / across banks? I understand working on weekends on live deals and executions with urgent deadlines which I don't mind, but some of my seniors have absolutely no blatant respect for weekends, requesting things to be done with tight deadlines on weekends for no real purpose or actual urgency just so they can send to their seniors to look "proactive", which sometimes doesn't even end up being utilized or looked at lol. I can almost expect every weekend to get a text or an email from my senior telling me to do stuff, to the point that my phone vibrating on weeknds gives me ptsd
And so much of the work is so mind numbing and non-value add that makes it even worse.. lol anyways thats my rant, would be nice to have a couple of weekends off to rejuvenate but it is what is I guess
I’ve only had a handful of exceptions to the weekend policy at Baird over the last few years. It is office / group dependent though - some teams have a tougher time with this.
are protected weekends respected there? We have a policy at my firm to take a protected weekend once in the past 4 weeks I think but its bs as we're expected to tick "Yes" when filling our timesheet asking if we've taken our protected weekend even though we haven't, and many of the times we're working on the weekends may not even be due to live deals but more for marketing materials / pitches or being "proactive" haha geeZ
Just straight up call them on the phone and ask if it's actually urgent and point out that the seniors rarely looked at stuff like this last time. Point to specific examples and casually mention that you're at a SO/family/friend's birthday and guilt-trip them.
In addition, get a separate number for work so they don't have your personal. I blocked my associates on my personal number.
