All I’ve heard is they’re an absolute sweatshop
Which group?
Kid left after about 6 months on the job of consistently pulling 2-3am nights. It will break you.

These are surprising comments given Stephens is not a top tier MM. I assumed they would have a better culture and lifestyle, but it seems they take advantage of being in select cities with little other choice.
Atlanta has had that for Stephens for over a decade. More banks have gone to Atlanta and it hasn’t changed so it must be an issue with the group head

Dudes a partner now or whatever their equivalent is.
