First Year Analysts: wtf is going on????

Just need to see how all the other analysts are doing. Getting absolutely railed right now. Pulling 2 all-nighters each week since January 1. Tech. wtf. I'm on 6 engagements and all those other bs infrastructure projects. Have sr. bankers crawling over me for infrastructure work. Then pitches - ??? Learning a shit ton but this is absolutely unreal. Also these market valuations are completely fucked. SPAC fever and money isn't going to stop though. demand to invest in SPACs > supply
