The company announced changes coming to its prestigious IBD and Markets divisions. Going forward, all employees in investment banking, research, sales and trading, and asset management will be held to a strict 40-hour maximum threshold per-week.
This comes shortly after an internal survey of work satisfaction painted a grim picture of life as a banking junior. We got a chance to speak with several of them:
“I spent years in high school and college excelling above and beyond to have the opportunity to work in bulge bracket banking,” Mile, a TMT IBD analyst, said “I could work somewhere else and probably make similar money, but then I can’t say I work at Goldman Sachs”
Timmothy, an analyst in equity capital markets said “I made more money than my dad in 2020 with no experience, but I shouldn’t have to work for it”
Sarah, a tmt analyst opined “My dad ended a relationship with banker and signed a worse deal with Goldman to get me this job” she continued “my last name is on this deal, I shouldn’t have to worry about the 10s of thousands of plebes who would “replace me” (if she did not want to work longer than 40-hours)”.
We asked if they would be open to working fewer hours, with the company instead hiring more analysts, but reducing or even eliminating bonuses. They all unanimously disagreed. “We are happy the company is going to let us work 40 hours and continue to pay us up to $200 grand. We shouldn’t have to work 4x as hard to earn 4x the average starting wage”.

Despite the ruination her anger has caused, Anna says she has no regrets. "I actually wish I knew I had this ability sooner!" Anna laughs.

whale spotted in illinois river
A humpback whale was spotted near Morris IL in the Illinois River today. The sighting comes just days after 2 Great White Sharks were seen frolicking in the same area. While not impossible, it does seem unlikely. It is thought that the whale may have followed the sharks as they sometimes do in the wild. The whale would of had to travel over 1250 miles to get to this location. The Marine Biologist Association will be in town for a full investigation. Until we have answers, we are asking folks to keep their pontoons and fishing boats docked.

two great white sharks found swimming in mississippi river near saint louis, missouri.
While it is not entirely impossible, it is incredibly uncommon for salt water dwelling creatures to stay for lengthy periods of time in fresh water. However, two Great White Sharks have managed to survive the trip and make their way up the Mississippi River somehow. Believed to have started as a mating couple, the two are assumed to have swam the 920 mile journey from the mouth of the Mississippi River that is connected to the Gulf Of Mexico. Officials in Saint Louis have contacted the Missouri Conservation Department and will likely have a team in the river soon to capture the two lost sharks.
