DB response to GS survey and WFH culture

Our global head spoke on the GS survey, he just brushed it off saying it's important we focus on clients and not compromise quality but is "aware of the ongoing issue" WTF??

Meanwhile:

- Analysts working 100+ hours 

- No meal stipend since covid 

- Analysts/Associates leaving on a weekly basis 

Can a bank even have a worse response?? I see guys at UBS complaining but be grateful you even get a meal stipend - I know analysts that spend $10-15 every night on meals as they simply don't have enough time to even prepare food.
