I find it so funny that bankers and corp dev guys are in this endless circle of appeasement

Having been on both sides of this coin now, I find it so funny to learn that the “relationship managing” cycle is miserable for both sides, not just the bankers. The bankers are constantly grinding away on pitches, and when the corp dev guys receive these pitches, they have to analyze it and entertain the bankers even if they have no interest at all. Just an endless cycle of both sides trying to make each other happy 😂
