There's a lot on this forum talking about how JPM HC/M&A/M&C are their top groups and it's pretty well known that M&A and HC are sweatshops. One thing that's often not talked about are the different groups and how they are culturally vs. experience. Are there any groups at JPM that may have a better WLB (not good but not sweaty) while also having a strong culture and experience?
