| Notoriously long hours -- any travelling you do will be to get there, do what you're there to do, and turn around. And have you been following the Wall Street Journal? Upheaval and turmoil, because all these supposedly superbright individuals made some very bad judgment calls. I work for a small firm specializing in the muni bond business, so it's much more palatable -- but I get resumes everyday from people cast off from UBS, Bear Stearns, etc., etc. My opinion? Choose to have a life. Figure out what is important to you -- whether it's travel, knowledge, the $$$, or some combination - and come up with some better idea than Investment Banking!!! |
