Don't listen to bankers and their hours... not saying that you can or should go ahead and become an IBD analyst (or that his hours aren't worse).SD619 wrote: Yeah... But I know someone who does Ibanking at Goldman Sachs and supposedly works 120hrs a week.
Not a typo
But since you're new to this sub-culture, many IBD analysts essentially sit around all day and then work the graveyard shift and call it a 100+ hour week, whereas a junior/midlevel/senior biglaw associate may do the same and it would be a 50 hour week (e.g., commuting, lunch, dinner, time between tasks, breaks etc. don't count when you're counting in 6 minute increments).
