Based on the most helpful WSO content, the workload during the week of Christmas can vary significantly depending on your role and firm. Some people in back-office roles report having a light workload, with many taking vacation or working reduced hours. For example, some mention that after December 20th, the office atmosphere becomes more relaxed, with people socializing and deferring tasks until the new year.
However, in front-office roles like investment banking, the workload can still be demanding. It's not uncommon for analysts and associates to work through the holidays, especially if there are deadlines or deals in progress. One user shared that they worked all of Christmas during their first year in banking, as it's part of the industry's demanding nature.
So, while some may enjoy a lighter schedule, others, particularly in client-facing roles, might still be grinding through the week.
