July 4th - days off?
Since July 4th falls on Wednesday, do you guys think the office will be slower on Monday/Tuesday or Thursday/Friday?
I understand a lot of banks will have employees work through July 4th, but I just want to know if we were to get days off, when do you think it would be?
Thu/fri
okay, thanks.
Who here is working tomorrow (July 4th) (Originally Posted: 07/03/2017)
Curious to see whether the monkeys are allowed to have the day off.
Day off (Y/N): BB/EB/MM/Boutique: SA/1st/2nd/3rd yr: Avg hours per week:

Happy July 4th, Bankies!
SA at Boutique: Working a half day tomorrow, then going to a gathering at MD's house. It's a small, tight-knit team so it's not uncommon here. It's also too small for anyone to really take much time off. Hours have been about 80 per week. Subways were dead this morning lol.
Will there be alcohol and other goodies available at the banker's house tomorrow?
Both Monday/Tuesday off and a half-day last Friday MM PE SA Avg 50-60 hours/week
Working today. Not working tomorrow. My old job was required for everyone in the states to work every day with the exception of Christmas and New Year's Day. We got additional pay for doing so and could remote in. You could use PTO, but you basically had to negotiate with team members to make that happen.
current job is AM? what was previous job Ehmerica?
Working from home today on some projects due Wednesday, hoping I'll get everything done so I can relax tomorrow.
MM IB SA Avg 60-65 hrs per week (on a strong upward trend)
Wow, 60-65 hours per week, must be bad deal flow
SA at BB within one of the top groups - average roughly 80-90 hours a week. We do have July 4th off!
Dem BB hours doe
The legend has entered.
Intern for PWM
Working today and tomorrow.
Idk why, if the market is closed, what work exactly is there to do for an advisor?
Out after the early market close today. No work tomorrow.
Slow af both today and last Friday. Have fun working boys.
Bankies gon bankie.
F100 corporate finance intern; worked today and working tomorrow. End of month so most finance people at the business are working at least some of the day.
Wow. Is this lowkey a soft protest of trump that they don't want employees celebrating?
1st Year at BB - Asset Management Work 70-80 Hours a week- not many weekends. Market has had pretty low volume since Friday, so Friday and Monday left at 4pm and tomorrow no work. God Bless America
Not working tomorrow. Not because our Company's nice, but because we closed all our pending transactions last week and sent out due diligence requests Friday afternoon.
SA at MM, avg 85-90 hrs a week, and we get the day off tomorrow. Most of the office took a long weekend and are taking Friday night - Tuesday off, but a few of us were in during the weekend/today.
EB - team dependent, really. The firm is closed but if you're on something live right now you may have to work. I have two client meetings this week and two next week so why I don't HAVE to work tomorrow, I will likely do so. Some people wont.
I generally am doing around 75-80 hours a week and none of the associates or up at my firm are doing more than that regularly, though some of our larger scale transactions people have gotten crushed during the thick of it. But it's not the norm.
Okay guys, come on with the hours exaggerations. I know some weeks you get slammed with 90-100, but nobody who is efficient is genuinely working 90+ consistently. Most BB groups I'd say that your "90-100" hour averages are actually more like 70-80 with the occasional 90-100 if you get slammed or have a really special or grueling deal or deadline.
BB ECM SA
70-75ish:
M-T: 7 - 8 F: 7-7 S: usually off unless a big deal - an institutional priority S: 10-whenever you're done - can range a lot from 4-10
Lol you are in ECM dude, no offense but that's a different league from M&A/TMT BB.
Tbf there are only 2 people ITT who say they do more than 80 hours, one is an SA which is expected because of just massive inefficiency, the other is lying because we know he's not in banking. Definitely people average longer than 80 over certain periods of time. But I would bet most, if not all, M&A bankers, if you took 1-2 years of their time an averaged it out, averaged no more than 80 hours.
