Associate keeping us awake super late
Associate is keeping me and my senior analyst up crazy late (at least 2:30am, 3:30-4 regularly) working on things for a live deal that we feel could be done in the morning. it's gotten to the point where we are pretty sleep deprived and making mistakes as a result. We really can't bring it up to the VP b/c we think he's gonna be on the ASO's side ("client needs this ASAP") and also the ASO might hate us and take it out on us at a later time. The comments are also pretty nitty and don't move the needle. Gets me pretty pissed and have come close to saying "can you make these changes yourself" multiple times. I'm usually a night owl and am fine staying up late but I feel like the hours we're putting in are taking a toll. Not really sure what to do. Don't want to give off the impression that I'm lazy, but feel like this is pretty extreme.
Quit acting like a bitch, you chose this career
Will it be more of the same next year when I jump to buyside?
If you go to a MF, then yes unfortunately lol.
As long as he is staying up as late as you are, deal with it.
If they are truly unreasonable, give your feedback to the staffer, and send him/her your examples.
Additionally, you can ask the staffer not to be tasked with him/her anymore.
lol the vp on the deal is also the staffer... it's also a live deal (extended by COVID), so can't really get out of it. and because of that it's been constant 100-115 hours since february. actually a bit worse than pre-COVID since all the travel time is now work
