Literally have not had a weekend off in a month
Just remember why you did. As a first year you’re 33% done, the last 33% you can slack off if you have a signed offer.
You are correct, they do not care about you. Sorry! But at least you're well paid?
Everytime I think like this, I try and remember that I once worked so hard to get here and that there are probably another 200 people who would want to be in my shoes right now (job-wise, not weekend work-wise)
I actually have not thought about this a single time since i started
Nah mate. Life suxs and being in IB feels like the most unlucky thing when your mate in marketing have been in furlough and getting paid 80% of their pay for sitting on their ass doing nothing for a whole year.
Are you potentially in denial of your situation and generating reasons to justify it?
That's just it, though! Tons of people want "the job" and intellectually believe they can weather its sacrifices before they viscerally internalize what being an ibanking analyst really means. I'm sure it's difficult to keep your mojo when it's your 3rd Friday grinding on excel at 2 am.
that's so real dude honestly
I am here with you brother
Now imagine feeling this way as an MBA associate — we don’t have an auto exit to private equity.
You get paid double for fewer hours and you can pass off work to analysts.
im actually kinda glad i have really solid experienced assocs most are A2As
indeed. .
If this comment was intended to play right into and perpetuate the post-mba associate stigma, you succeeded.
Man, I hate you
i quit
Think i saw your thread, i posted in there too. You in miami yet?
That's me, updated my original post haha. Heading to Miami tomorrow. Finally felt nice to be able to enjoy both days of the weekend after so long..
Which bank you are at? I haven't worked a single Saturday since December and I am in an M&A team (not known for good culture on the street).
Likely your senior just has terrible time management skills or unrealistic expectation on what you can accomplish at once
Baml lol. And yeah it really feels like just poor management. Absolutely poor they literally give no consideration for us juniors. And when we grind through the weekend to push the book out (which isn’t even needed on monday btw) all we get is some permutation of yeahhh thanks for the hard work guys.
Like hello??? Yeah thanks and then what???
