Are DCM hours that bad?
I’m going to be an SA at a BB in the DCM group. My friend who interned in DCM at a different BB said that the hours weren’t crazy. He said that he usually could get out the office around 7/8 and never worked weekends. However, on this website, people are saying that DCM hours are pretty bad and that analysts work until midnight all the time. What type of hours should I be expecting?
Working until midnight every day is pretty extreme for DCM - don't forget you also start earlier (in around 7am)
Some of the posts about DCM are from early 2021 when every group across the street was getting crushed because of how much deal flow there was - it's normalized a bit more now and your friend's experience is typical.
Know a girl who works 7-10ish and works the majority of Sundays as an associate.
Do you know what Uber policy is with these firms? I've got an internship coming up in DCM at a BB and was wondering how late do you need to leave for the Uber? Is 8pm ok?
Usually later. Not sure about the exact policies, but 8pm would be closer to the time when you can claim your meal allowance. Uber/cab is like 11pm.
Can claim at 9 for mine.
do you know what citi's policy is? and if you finsih your work earlier than 9 but wanna go gym/hang out with friends in the firm till 9, you can still take a cab home right?
Not usually horrible in normal year
If you have late hours it just means your bank sucks. Your relationship bankers should be looping you in ideally and you only have to execute.
If you're originating out of desperation I highly recommend you leave.
