Is there an IB group where you don't have to do work on Sundays?? Really tired of this
Sunday looks like a full-blown workday. Staffer said only work that should be done on Sunday is "critical" work but otherwise it is a "prep" day. Most people don't follow this. Is every BB IB group that's not like this??? I just get really mad sometimes.
People in ib need to find Jesus and stop grinding on Sunday
In any BB IB group, there will be at least the expectation that your Sunday is available for work. Personally, I worked most Sundays at least ~8 hours, but some weekends I could get away with just sending a few emails and calling it a day.
At a T2 BB and would estimate that I’ve worked 1/3-1/2 of Sundays, usually just for a few hours doing “prep work” as you called it. Only had a few Sundays where I was working most the day.
However, some analysts in my group work a lot of Sundays/Saturdays (which are supposed to be protected). It’s hard to tell because we don’t directly compare hours, but my sense is that a few of them seem to consistently be grinding on weekends. I think it’s a combo of:
Besides that, I think it helps that I am honest with my staffer about how much I work on the weekends and in general our group tried to prevent weekend work (comes from the top).
It is really hard to measure how you stack up to other analysts because everyone is so different - I seem to be surviving okay and have gotten good feedback from my teams. Maybe I’m a dumbass though and I’m actually a bottom bucket analyst at bonus time, who tf knows.
