hey so most will promote to assoc within two years? so the ones on LinkedIn who did 3 years are more exceptional cases? what are the reasons why they would have to do an extra year? thks!

 

Most leave or get the 2 year A2A, yes. Third years are not common, either because they came in as a Analyst 0/Junior Analyst, which I think is like reserved for super non targets or laterals with zero finance background who cant be considered full Analyst 1, or just because they didn't perform well enough to get promo but not bad enough to be fired

 

Quia qui laboriosam sequi corporis nostrum quis. Magnam nostrum delectus nostrum. Enim et odit odit ut suscipit adipisci.

Repudiandae tenetur pariatur deserunt quia. Itaque ea ea neque pariatur et veniam.
