Lev Fin VP Hours

I am currently considering making a move to a solid upper MM bank that has a growing lev fin platform and wanted to get some perspective on what the hours generally are for a VP-level at the large MM banks or even bulge brackets. From what I see there is about a 70 hour work week at the VP level?

Basically upgrading tiers from my current lev fin role which has typically ~9 - 8pm on the vp level, but can can involve a saturday/sunday if there are a few deals at once with tight turnarounds.

I really appreciate any perspective from Associates up for VP promotion or current VPs.
