Investment Banker Life
Want to be an
Investment Banker? But how well do you
understand the Life of an
Investment banker?
Wouldn’t it be great if you have a clear
picture about what your life will be as
an investment banker?
Don’t worry I am going to help you
out with this.
Downsides
Working for 100+ hours a week,
including weekends
Work is not constant and would vary from
working on the pitch books, financial models
etc.
Work majorly is done on Excel and
presenting your models effectively in a power
point presentation.
At an Associate level number of working hours
could range from say 80-90 hours per week,
from 9.00 am to 11.00 pm and working either of
the day on weekends
When it goes higher up the chain at a Vice President
level the hours would improve. VP’s, if at they have to
work on weekends or late nights, can do it from home.
Managing Directors have a significantly better work
schedule when they do not travel they could report at
7.00 am and leave by 6.00 pm. But, MD’s have a lot of
travelling to do perhaps 3 out of every 5 days on average
More than the number of working hours it is because of the
unpredictability of the working hours which makes it erratic.
You do not have any control over your social life and have
to be available day in and day out.
Upsides
Salary and
Bonuses
The fat salary and the
bonuses which could go up
to three to five time the
salary makes up for all the
hard work you put in.
Skills Exit
Opportunities
You would be exposed to
top business leaders and
know how they think,
create strategy and the
thought processes behind
their decisions.
It could be a great help
if you want to look for
other finance careers
such as private equity,
venture capital and
hedge funds.
Thank
You!!!
