It’s still very rough you have to travel more.
Clients don't want u to travel anymore, remote working is the best option

Yes i was told IB attrition rate is like 30 to 50% depeding on location after year 1
They fire the because they suck st their job

I’ve worked with great mba associates and I’ve also worked with terrible ones

The worst ones had non-finance background

It’s because the ramp up for an associate one is really hard. You’re expected to know everything day one. Analyst twos spin circles around you.

That’s why associate ones just don’t really last. They either quit on their own because they didn’t realize what they’re getting themselves into or they get fired.

The only reason why the mba associate pipeline exists in America is because of analysts exiting to buy-side/start ups and limited A2A. Once A2A ramps up in a bad market, post mba associate recruiting will be dead.
