Protected Hours Policies Across Banks

Previous threads are a bit outdated and don't reach across banks - thought we could try to get some data points across banks/groups on policies for junior bankers. Example: JPM has a pencils down policy from Friday 7pm to Saturday 12pm. Other banks have a certain number of protected weekends. What policies does your bank have for juniors, and how enforced are these policies? Would appreciate if we could mention BB/EB/MM and if you're in a coverage/m&a group!
