Am I staffed too heavily?
I’m currently staffed on 6 live deals and a pitch as a first year? Is this normal or should I speak with my staffer?
I’ve heard 4-5 live mandates is the sweet spot but not too sure

Depends on how intense the deals are. If of average intensity, then yes, you're overstaffed
Can someone please explain how it’s possible to be on 4+ deals at once?
If I’m on one single active sell-side M&A process, I’m swamped (like working 9am-12am), add in a pitch or a slower process and I’m working until 2am or later each night. My banks standard is one intense live deal + something else lighter (like a pitch, equity raise, etc)
How is anyone possibly on 4 processes at once? Between marketing materials, the model, buyer outreach, diligence, stupid emails to respond to, etc, it seems physically impossible. Is it just that people are counting follow-on offerings or IPOs that are 0 work? Or there’s a product/coverage group situation where work is distributed? Or are there like 4 analysts per deal? I just don’t understand how that is even possible
