Hey everybody,
I'm currently managing investments for a bank in my hometown in Louisiana. I don't necessarily dislike my current position, but I've begun to explore other opportunities. I have some buddies who are working in Finance in NYC on the IB side, and we've had some conversations about me looking for a position up there. That being said, I'd love to work in Finance in NYC, but I have no desire to work 90+ hrs/week like those in IB. What advice would you guys have about possible NYC finance positions that don't have the insane work hours of IB?
I'm not naive in thinking any job is without stress, but I also don't think it's unreasonable to want a job that allows me some sort of work/life balance.
Background: 2015 Grad of non-target school, Summa Cum Laude, finishing up my MBA in the summer from the same school, S7/66 and AAMS certifications under my belt already.
Any and all (non-snarky) feedback is welcome. Thanks in advance.
Non-insane finance jobs? That's like asking for a sex dungeon comprised entirely of purple-haired feminists! Why would you want that?
What's up with you and sex dungeons...?
Your mom!
Insurance is your friend.
Have heard this too. Not interested in the life insurance selling side. Sure there are alternatives to this, though.
commercial banking, corporate banking, maybe family office, FOHF, insurance company's Asset Management arm?
Have been in commercial banking for the last three years and enjoyed it. Wouldn't even know how to go about getting plugged into a family office or FOHF. Thanks for your feedback.
The back office is actually my preferred place to strip down nude. Don't knock it before you try it!
