July 4th - Holiday or Work Day?
Can anyone shed some light on whether NYC firms typically take the fourth of July as a holiday (it falls on a Friday this year) or if it is kosher to ask for the day off as an SA? Anecdotal evidence is fine.

Firm will be completely shut down unless you're on something that has to press through. Bank holiday, SEC holiday, government holiday, etc.

Agreed. I've had to be in late the 3rd and early the 5th, but the 4th is generally off-limits unless there's an emergency or firedrill that can't wait like 12 hours.thesealocust wrote:Firm will be completely shut down unless you're on something that has to press through.
