What are hours like for you if you don't mind me asking?

Currently in a JPM/BAML LevFin group looking at promotion this summer and am strongly considering pivoting to Corporate Banking for the longer term. Understand that it may vary from your type of bank but curious to know.

Thanks!

40-50 hours a week for me. Credit people work 45-50 on average or 55-60 in a bad week.

Having worked at one of the banks you mentioned, I can confirm Corporate Banking hours are much worse there which is why I left. Didn’t make sense to work slightly less than IB hours for a substantial pay cut.
