Big 6 M&A Banking Hours
Hi all,
I’m currently an MM M&A associate 1 in Canada, and I’ve recently been offered an opportunity to transfer to an IB M&A team at one of the Big 6 banks.
Right now, I’m working around 60-70 hours a week, but I ask how cooked would I be from a lifestyle / hours perspective if I were to switch. Any thoughts on typical total hours and flexibility (1 day wfh etc) typically seen at the M&A groups of the banks would be helpful.
Ik ur at national
Maybe / maybe not - tons of postings these days and it could be anywhere
No one calls it Big 6, except people who work or have an offer at National.
Wasn’t my point, national does ok and would put some groups at the same level as Scotia
60 ain't bad
You’ll be working more at Big 5 (6) for sure
The M&A team at NBF is definitely more than 60-70/wk, but a lot of good people there and some interesting files for sure.
From what I have heard I should be expecting 9 am to 11 pm consistently which is fine, but really hoping that weekends are not ~14 hours work days (obv I understand that it fluctuates with live deals)
