One Question: Starwood London Acquisition Associate HOURS
Just curious from anyone who has worked there or has friends that have worked there. Need the answer pelted in my face so I can remind myself why I shouldn't do it.

Usually 15h days and expect to be called when you’re on holiday too.
I still have the job description from an analyst role at SW London
"Strong work ethic with the ability and desire to work unsociable hours
Ability to change plans and travel at short notice"
Pretty self explanatory
Also - former colleague used to work in their acquisition team. Absolute sweatshop with toxic environment - still, this is what you get for top market compensation...
Seconded, heard the same from a friend who works there
I heard comp is good but nothing crazy for an associate 100-130 base and 100% bonus
