Bank of America employee dies from working 120 hrs/week

Grapeviners, this is what your corporate overlords like "Mr 70HoursperWeek" and all want from you, to DIE.

70 hours per week? This is a tight slap to Mr. NM and his supporters.

Consider the case of the McKinsey consultant who lost his life( https://www.consultancy.in/news/4168/young-mckinsey-consultant-commits-suicide-due-to-work-pressure ).

Wake up Grapevine!

Aftermath: BofA Juniors will begin strike today.

Sick! People like NM are destroyers of work life balance. They earn so much but they want their employees to earn peanuts and work like maniacs.

NM perpetuates a very dangerous myth.

Infosys has the worst environment across organizations.

Management layer creates unnecessary pressure on junior employees so that they can earn huge bonuses. Middle management are all ass lickers who just obey whatever is being told to them and that is how culture is compromised. Everyone uses juniors as their own pet servant simply pass on the entire work to them, give them unrealistic deadlines and they show to upper management how much work we are getting done. Shame !

Why the f was he working 120hrs? That's 17hrs everyday if you work even on the weekends. I ain't working that many hours unless we are in a company crisis mode with a war room setup and my own fucking money on the line.

Investment Banking is insane . If you’re working on a critical deal for a client through a bank / management consulting firm , your entire desk is often revised 50 times , not to mention constant tweaking to the data analysis and models ( all in time to present the perfect pitch for the deal) within a very short time frame . People easily end up with 100+ hour weeks as an associate as they are on a probation period for their first year and not all will make the cut in the big firm.

Watch the show Industry on HBO if you can , it deals with the same theme.
