BofA Houston Work Culture/Deal Flow?
Hey guys, as background I'm going into the o&g group this summer as an analyst but am getting mixed signals about the culture there from those I've talked to, so just wanted to ask if anyone knows what the work culture at the BoA Houston office is like? Is it really sweaty?
I'm also wondering if their o&g team has a lot of deal flow/do they do a lot of m&a? It seems like recently they've had a decent amount, but is that something that seems to be on a sustainable/upwards trend (I've heard in recent years before COVID, it was a lot less).
And finally, any recommendations for someone going there?
Sorry I know that's a lot of q's. Any info would be really appreciated! I'm not too familiar with the Nat Res group at BoA so anything helps :)

Solid shop, not top of the street and rarely on the market changing deals as lead left - Oxy/Anadarko was an outlier because of an alum connection (former BofA energy co-head went to Oxy leadership team) but plenty of deals still going through the team. You'll avoid some of the brutal hours you hear about from other energy groups, although Houston is in general sweaty even at middle of the road firms.
M&A is more dependent on the O&G market than the specific firm, pre-covid (~2019) oil was so down that any firms acquiring got hammered (see: Oxy). It's a better market for O&G M&A right now so you should be entering at a pretty good time.
