Aware this can be ignorant but want your thoughts:
Some bankers exit to corporate in corp dev, IR, strat finance, etc. Are most of them still douchy / a-hole at corporate (and carry culture with them) or they become more chill cuz don't need to try to fit into IB culture?
I want to avoid working for one in corporate if generally they don't change.

Crazy stays crazy
That's my take but learning new perspectives
The bankers that tend to leave for industry/corporate world tend to be more chill personalities in general.
Follow up: If they exited when they were head of sector group or ED/MD, are they chill?
Wouldn't say Ruth Porat or Safra Catz to be chill?
As someone who is still in banking, but went from hardcore bank to chill bank, I really don't think a lot of people go into banking be a-holes. I think that being surrounded by a world that moves quickly, decisively, and where many expenses are seemingly no cost turns people into less empathetic and understanding people. Hell, I even saw it when I first made my transition, where I wanted things done fast and quick, but I have learned to enjoy the slower lane a little bit more recently.
Pray, tell, which bank/group did you move to?
