IB benefits/vacation/insurance/401k match policy

Nobody seems to talk about the benefits beyond the higher salary specifically for bankers. Was wondering if anyone has any insight to the amount of vacation/sick days, the different types of benefits you received(maybe initial FT sign bonus as well) and insight to how good of insurance/401k match. If you could include what bank or maybe if bb,mm or boutique and city. Just trying to figure out what to expect for FT. Thanks!

Investment Banking Short Resume Review / Recap

“Excellent advice and help with structuring my CV, I really feel more confident with this last version and learned how to tell my professional story in a more impactful way. I was having trouble with the previous structure and couldn't find the right words or how to portrait my career development in some areas of my CV, but definitely feel I now unlocked the correct way to address it with any company”

“I had a fantastic conversation with him. He was incredibly approachable, knowledgeable, and generous with his time. I particularly appreciated hearing about his experience in the mining industry and gaining insights into the sector, its dynamics, and the different career opportunities within it. What made the conversation especially valuable was his willingness to share his personal experiences, provide thoughtful advice, and offer a perspective that you do not always get from reading about the industry online. He made the conversation engaging and comfortable, and I genuinely enjoyed learning from him. I also appreciated his openness to staying in touch and being helpful in the future. Overall, it was an excellent conversation, and I would highly recommend connecting with him to anyone interested in the mining industry.”
