Hello people. For those in very sweaty groups, how often are you “sitting on your hands” between turns? Or is there just always something to do? A constant sprint? How do you know when to log off?
Would be awesome to hear any and all stories.

A2 at a MM sweatshop (think Piper / RayJ / Lincoln). It’s our most active team by deals per capita. There will always be something to do, and even if you’ve completed the medium term deliverables, there are still 50 long term projects (like 100 page market mappings of sectors the VP/Director want to cover). In short, everyone could work 24/7 for 2 weeks and not clear the teams backlog. We have 5+ deals per analyst at a time, so generally it means that your day is completely full. With that being said, you just need to push back and give yourself breaks. Obviously hit the time sensitive stuff, but going out on a Saturday night or finding time for an hour gym, often can be hard, but absolutely necessary, otherwise frankly you’d kill yourself. Edit: I know when to log off when it’s 4 am and I know I’ll just fuck up anything else I work on and deal with communicating deadlines in the morning.
Didn’t know Ray J had that kind of flow or that it was a sweatshop. Has to be piper or lincoln
Not at any of these places but have heard firsthand from guys on RJs industrials team that they pull pretty insane hours
Ray J tech & services team?
