How much will you be working this holiday?

With Christmas and New Years closing in, I’d be curious to know how holiday work expectations differ across the street. How much do you expect to work over the next couple weeks?

To kick things off, I’m a 3rd year analyst at a Bulge Bracket. Much of the team (junior to senior) has taken off for at least part of the two weeks. With only a few live deals across the group and pitching essentially halted until 2022, am hoping for a slow couple weeks. Call it 50 hours a week.
