How Frowned Upon Is It To Leave Before Your Supervisors As a New Analyst

What's up guys. I'm a new analyst and just started work. I'm still building up my skill-set so I'm not really working on anything too crazy right now. The thing is, my supervisors will generally stay in the office until 6:30-7:30pm, but by 3:30pm I'm generally just staring at my computer screen looking through old files and documents, not doing much of anything. I always ask them what I can help out on and normally will check in before I head out at around 5:30pm. Most of the time they just tell me to head home and seem super cool with it, but I'm wondering if I should be staying a little later each day until they all head home. It's a super laid back culture and not at all cut-throat like IB. It's not that I mind staying in the office or anything, I just feel like if I'm not doing anything at the office I may as well head home to get to the gym and take care of some chores, while still getting to bed at a decent hour. I always produce good work and deliver the projects I work on in a timely fashion, plus our deal flow is slowish and August is sort of a dead month anyway so it's not like everyone's running around with their hair on fire and I'm just notably absent.

 

As long as they're telling you to go home, you're cool. Just always check before you leave. And if you have extra time, nothing is wrong with finding work for yourself that adds value. Maybe look up an industry report, highlight some import stuff, and give that along with 2-3 key bullet points to your bosses?
