Recently had a chance to talk to an MD at a post-superday cocktail event, and they mentioned that while the younger years may be tough, its important to stick it out and you'll reap dividends in the future. Is the lifestyle as a VP+ that much better?

I've posted some iteration of this a few times before, but no. The hours only get worse. Watch this
. This happens in IB too. Sure, the MD might leave the office at 6PM, but he/she will be taking calls and working all night long. Worse yet, the MD also has to continually bring in business."its important to stick it out and you'll reap dividends in the future"
this part is true... comp gets to a ridiculous level
