What do M&A bankers do right now?
Let’s say your firm cuts 30% headcount, but regardless there will still be analysts. What exactly do they do? Probably no bonuses due to no activity, but I hear they will still work 80 hours at home. Doing.. what?

Dunno, but I'm highly comfortable w/ my job security at the moment.
There's this little thing called activism & defense within classic M&A work. More broadly, people are concerned about liquidity, so firms are having discussions about short-term liquidity and whether drawing / putting a revolver in place makes sense (to the extent the company has the ability to do so).
