EB’s are a fucking SWEATSHOP
Anyone who tells you a smaller boutique like Centerview/PJT/PWP has a “good culture and WLB” is straight up lying to your face. It’s a fucking sweatshop. It’s non stop hours here. I’m in one of the three and my two other friends in the other EB’s say the same exact thing.
Long, long hours and technical work. I wish it was logo editing, but it’s not. Help me.
Yes, EBs are sweatshops.
EBs just churn and burn people. I don't know anyone who is at an EB and even modestly content with their life, granted I only know 4 people who work at one.
'More responsibility' = having a crap load of work dumped onto your lap with minimal guidance and if you can't complete it on-time and to a high standard then someone senior is going to yell at you
Would prospects these days prefer to work 80-90 hours/week at Centerview/PJT/EVR and make 210k+ in their first year, or work 75-85 hours/week at Barclays and make 140k?
