JPM UK M&A // CS UK M&A - Culture, Hours, Comp etc

Looking for information on both of:

JPM Cazenove UK M&A - Senior Associate and CS UK M&A - Senior Associate

If private messaging preferred, hit me up. Hours, team, how the team operates with other teams, nature of transactions worked on (private / public), staffing, comp, intensity at weekends.

Any and all information welcome given moving at what seems to me like quite an important stage of my career and do not want to mess up the decision. Not bothered about exit opportunities as I would like to remain with M&A and maybe move to Corp Dev if I decide to leave.
