I'm at a ~$1.5B AUM LMM firm in the midwest and life is pretty chill ever since WFH. At my firm, we basically work regular business hours with very rare weekend work.
Thinking about moving to NYC sometime this year. Wondering if PE in NYC is facing similar WLB challenges as IB. Will I hate my life?
Trying to consider options between continuing in PE or going corporate/startup.

General consensus is hours are maybe a smide less than ib but much more demanding in terms of actual work expected
I'm more asking about the WFH dynamics making IB pretty bad right now. Is PE seeing similar dynamics? Most PE associates already know the basics, so it's not like a first year analyst getting ramped up. Also talking about LMM / MM. I know MFs are bad in general.
