Associates yes, VPs no
Take them at their word but also realize that they're talking a lot about what they think will happen in the future, which is meaningless.
A lot of smaller offices have Analysts step up and do more in terms of interacting with clients, traveling, etc. as you build a reputation with your coworkers so I'm sure they're being accurate here.
For the stuff they're talking about improving, note that they'll probably expect the Analysts to do the work to automate it. Which means it doesn't really matter because you should be doing that anyways just to make your life easier.
Take my experience with a grain of salt as it’s only one data point. But I heard basically the same stuff, just to find myself working on useless ppt decks until 2am every day. Very little client interaction and no travel at all. In my opinion, banks say whatever they need if they want to hire you. Again, just my personal experience and not saying this is how it is everywhere. The people that said all the stuff are actually very nice and big no asshole policy, but from a work perspective, very little has held true.
If this is JEF TES in CLT I would take it with a huge grain of salt. Worked with them on a couple deals and had a miserable time with associates bombarding with comments at all hours on shit that wasn’t that important. Have never had as many consecutive 4am nights as when I worked with that group. I’ve heard they’re trying to make culture improvements, leading me to believe this post might be about them, but I had such a bad experience that I personally would never work with them again.
