Running a business while working in IB?
Hi all, hoping to get some advice/insights here.
I’ll be starting as a full time grad analyst in IB next year and over the past few months have been planning to open an ecommerce business.
One of the terms in my employment contract says "during your employment with the Company you must not, without first obtaining the Company’s prior written consent, engage in any employment or provide any services to anyone other than the Company, including external directorships".
I assume this means I’ll have to tell them about my side business before starting. Wondering if anyone else has similar situations in their teams and/or what your attitudes might be towards someone with a side business? Mostly cos I don’t want my team to think I’m not putting in all of my effort into my full time job.
Thanks for any insights!
I'd be more concerned about where you're going to find the time to run this operation. When operating your own business, stuff is constantly going wrong and you need to be constantly ready to address issues. I could be wrong but it doesn't seem like the most conducive activity to pair with FT IB.
