Mortgage Trading (Agency/Non-Agency) Lifestyle/Responsibilities

What would the responsibilities/lifestyle of a junior on a Agency/Non-Agency MBS desk look like? Anything from the tasks that could be expected to regular hours worked. I checked some older posts on WSO and heard the lifestyle can be grueling for juniors but wanted to know if anyone could shed more light on either of these topics.
