Anyone else concerned with how slow they are?
I started earlier this summer and I have been logging off at 6pm for the last three weeks. Haven’t had anything to do. All of my projects are at a standstill. I reached out to my staffer about it. Still have not received any new projects. Is anyone else super slow? I’m very stressed about it and honestly hate it because I feel like I could be fired tomorrow.
Don't stress about it. I know a few other people that are in the same boat. Take advantage of the extra time to focus on yourself, relationships with friends/family, hobbies, etc.
Don't stress, you're an A2, a big part of the engine. I'd be worried if I was an MBA associate or VP.
When I’m riding the bench it certainly doesn’t feel like I’m a big part of the engine. But appreciate your optimism.
I wouldn't sweat it man. On a deal team, one A2 is worth a gaggle of A1s and MBA associates. M&A will pick up, it's a matter of time.
This is me, I effectively only work literally 1 hour a day maybe 2 and started 2-3 months ago.
I’ve voiced it out to my manager and team consistently that I’m at my desk doing nothing and can’t be out to dry come performance review time but no one’s looping me into anything. I just said fuck it and silo’d myself until they ask for something. I did my part and it’s not really on me if they don’t want to give me work to develop my skill set.
I’m using my extra desk time to study for the CFA after doing my work, just use your extra time towards something for yourself. I see it as a plus tbh.
Tbh I’m trying to learn as much as I can so I can get out of banking. Ain’t learning much from the sideline
I’m a 1st yr analyst in RX & I’ve been going home between 10pm - 2am for most nights….. I’ve got to say, I’m jealous.
Work at an MM shop and am getting the same thing. We have hit pause on multiple deals we were prepping over the summer to ride out the end of the year. Not just bad luck on my staffings either as pitch volume seems to be lower going into the holiday season and others on the team have hit pause on separate deals.
Honestly a blessing in disguise to better prepare yourself for future potential exits
Can’t make this shit up. During 2020&2021 people complained how busy they were (not that it wasn’t true) and wished that it slowed down, now we are finally enjoying some time outside of work and we complain again. Love it
