Investment Banker Question:
What is one concern you have about investment banking?
Answer:
Honestly, my biggest concern with investment banking is the politics that come along with the business world. I definitely had a first-hand experience with this problem during my internship. It was complicated by the fact that I had to move locations and, on top of that, change groups. I currently have an offer with Bank of America Merrill Lynch Healthcare, and it's the offer I wanted since it's arguably one the strongest groups at BAML, but it wasn't one of my favorite experiences of the summer.
One concern I have about investment banking is the balance between work life and family life. Family and friends are an important part of my life because they have shaped the person that I am today. That is why my #1 priority is to stay in New York. If I'm going to be working 90-100 hours a week, then I want to be as close to family as possible.
