That sounds like a light week.
sure, but why the need to state it to the media
this is not how you compete for talent - basically signals to all gen z to study computer science and go tech or recruit for consulting
Lying about it could lead to more backlash. Might as well be up front about it
I wouldve gone into tech if i wasnt so shit at the few comp sci classes i took
i mean she's not wrong, that's a light week in BB IB
Sweatshops everywhere:
I don't think she has any place speaking about IBD hours. Mary Erdoes is incredibly successful and talented, but she works in JPM WM / AM. Friends in those groups at JPM worked 50 hours a week.
I would have done anything to work 12 hour days for 6 days a week as an analyst. That would have been incredible and an immensely better experience than what I encountered. Typically it was closer to 4 days a week 17 hours, 2 days a week of 12 hours, and 1 day of stress that a VP would blow you up while you were trying to decompress.
Bingo
72 hours? That’s so little
I averaged 85-90 as junior
Dare I say it - BASED AF?
She even tied it to the whole 10k hours cliche 🤦♂️
Worst thing Gladwell’s ever come up with smh
I'd happily take those hours lol
