IB Hours
What does a day in IB look like? It’s hard for me to imagine that people can be working for 15 hours a day and still have stuff to do.

There are times im working 15 hours straight but for the most part I’ll have down time throughout the day. The real issue is that good MDs are often meeting with clients during the day. What that means is you don’t get comments until after dinner, which often need to be turned that evening. So while you aren’t always working 15 hours, you must be available those 15 hours, if that makes sense.
That does make sense. Out of curiosity do you still have to be in the office for the entire 15 hours or do you work online from home or something else. I’d imagine that it’s based on company policy but not sure.
I normally leave after dinner and finish at home.
Can you touch on where you in NYC? Like how close to the office do you recommend?
40-55 hours / week
It’s a dream bro! I jack off in the office frequently.
