I’m sort of worried about the work life balance, like obviously we know it’s going to be bad but I want some kind of personal life too. How is your experience w that in IB?
full disclosure, I am an incoming intern so don't have direct experience, but I have heard ECM and DCM are generally better at work-life balance than the normal IB groups. Not as good as S&T but very good nonetheless. Having said that groups like tech-ECM are still getting worked very hard as far as I know. That's partly due to WFH and also a lot due to the share amount of deal-flow.
As a fellow international student, I suggest that you focus on work-life balance slightly less given there are only so many companies that sponsor, and if you filter out the bigger opps you'll find yourself out of many options (I myself am headed to one of the top groups that has one of the worst WLBs). CS is one of the biggest firms that still sponsor so I would re-iterate the suggestion of choosing CapMarkets over S&T for the reasons given above.
thank you so much for your response! def helps my decision
