Groups with Less Modeling

In a model heavy group and thankful I’ve gained the skills, but really don’t enjoy sitting in a model the majority of my day. Any groups / firms that are model light, thinking product groups?

Echoing feedback on top, ECM / DCM tends to be VERY light on modeling. The following feedback is specifically for DCM (assuming IG corporate coverage vs HY), the only real “modeling” that you do is prob running breakeven analysis / liability management (most teams likely have an existing template in place). Otherwise, you will spend most of your capacity doing market / pricing updates (in the context of any banks that can underwrite via balance sheet and not EBs). If WLB is a big consideration then this is a great role.
