"JPMorgan has been offering fitness classes and Zoom lunches with senior bankers to give analysts more face time.
Its investment bank is also using technology to reduce duplicate work on slide decks. Employees in the division are encouraged to take weekends off when no deals are looming, and to ask for one protected weekend off every month."Banking newspeak. Technology to reduce work on slide decks, you mean like templates and spell checkers? Gasp. And take weekends off when no deals are looming. You mean don't work when there is no work which is like 2 weekends a year?
I ponder the fate of the junior analysts who dares to ask for a protected weekend off.
