In private equity, it seems to me the primary work output is the PowerPoint presentation. And even though I’m quite skilled in PPT, it’s still a ton of work and very annoying to make a 50 page deck.
So my question is this: is there a finance job out there that doesn’t use PPT? Maybe certain types of hedge funds? Although I’ve heard of a few HFs that still build models and decks. Yuck.
In my brief quant finance experience I would use python…
…and then copy paste outputs into PowerPoint. Sorry dude

Fwiw I haven’t found I’ve spent much time in ppt in PE, besides making IC decks and diligence slides. Takes up 20% of my time as an assoc
Hmmm … where is the other 80% going?
Excel, calls/meetings, reading cims, analyzing stuff in data room, etc.
