Career Resources
People who will wear their patagonia vests in the summer. Interns who wear Gucci loafers. People who work at Charles Schwab and say they work on Wall St. etc. etc.
More meant in a negative context to describe people with no WLB that only care about getting the job done and are dicks to people/exude douchiness.
Somebody who keeps trying to talk to you about deals or their portfolio at a happy hour where everyone else is talking about vacation plans, fantasy teams, and what bar you're going to next.
More broadly speaking people who make their job (or general love of finance) the primary element of their personality.
Someone who treats colleagues poorly for numerous different reasons, they are what make a bank's culture bad

The kind of person who you can tell works in IB / PE without them even mentioning it. They let their career become their personality.
The kid that tells the teacher they didn't collect the homework...imagine if they years later joined an investment bank.
