Obligatory link: Morning Coffee: 23-year-old Goldman Sachs analyst goes rogue: "I'm broke." Citi's got an annual pledge too
Tldr: kid got given the usual analyst nonsense, midnight assignment and 9am deadlines. He had a minor crashout on LinkedIn about it and quit.
Obviously his experience isn’t new but… Was he right to do it? I’ve never seen anything that actually impacts how many hours juniors work, ever.
I guess he just couldn’t handle the workload. Someone should have told him it gets better – one day you get to assign midnight tasks and then get go to sleep until 8am.
