Tired of process-oriented work
I have worked in investment banking for a couple of years now, doing primarily sell-side deals, but I am getting a little tired of building CIMs, running the back and forth on diligence topics, managing and keeping track of VDR items etc. I find these tasks to be draining and not very interesting.
Do any of you feel the same / if not, why do you feel differently? Should I be viewing these tasks differently?
Are there any roles within IB or in finance in general that spend less time on process-oriented tasks and more focus on modeling or analysis of businesses instead?
honestly think the same thing.
its why i dont care about PE. its all a really drawn out boring process with people freaking out over diligence lists.
Public markets is probably the plasy here, but its so dang hard to get a HF role.
I honestly dont know what to do
Agreed, HF sounds difficult
Agreed, working in a global MM and feel the same after doing quite a few sellsides, used to put a lot of thought into CIM drafting until I realized how no one really cares about the content anyway and it’s just more about filling up pages with generic crap, as long as it’s pretty. Can do it on autopilot these days…
I feel like BB’s/EBs that work on larger deals do more actual modeling / structuring / analytical work vs just churning out vanilla sellsides, but curious to hear perspectives from those bankers.
