I know that a great deal of those who go into IB can't stick it out beyond 5 or so years. So that being said, how long does it usually take a banker to reach the level of a VP or an MD? I would think that it would become easier for those who actually stay in IB beyond 5 years with there being less competition for promotions.
Thanks

I work with two former BB VP's. Both did banking out of college, one went back for an MBA the other did not. They are 30 and 31.
3 year analyst, 3 year associate, x year VP, MD uncertain
What % of Associates make it to VP? What % of VPs make it to MD (typically)? Do most get fired or leave because they decide to?

My boss just told me things just got tougher these days, it used to 3 years associate and you automatically become a VP in BBs. Title doesn't mean that much if you can't bring in new clients and generate businesses for the firm.

lol what no assoc is expected to bring in business to get a vp promote
based on the conventional wisdom, 3year analyst 3-4 year associate; so, that's a total of 7 years before VP (assuming you go via the undergrad route).

how many years does it take an associate at a BB to make VP? (Originally Posted: 03/21/2007)
I'm an associate at a boutique. Just wanted to get some perspective.
Three to Four years
What % of associates at BBs make associate? For example, if the first year associate class is 100 (yes, i realize this number might be off), how many will be promoted to VP in 3-4 years, and how many will be pushed out?
makes VP. It's fairly hard to get fired in banking, unless macro factors drive whole departments out of commission, in which case performance doesn't matter as much anyways. People leave on their own.
I think it is fairly easy to get fired in banking. It is one of those areas in which burn out rate is abnormally high. People work here for a while and then the majority gets fired or leave on their own (an excuse for getting fired).
Most banks hire MBA students haviung the picture that these guys could be MD's one day
so what are the percentages of ppl leaving and making vp?
50% at BB
