Show Notes

In today's episode:

  • Investment banking has a culture of long hours and pushing people to the brink; a recent article noted that Baird has a norm of 110-hour work weeks.
  • Ultimately, people know the demands of what they're signing up for in these fields; it's a huge amount of money with high stakes.
  • Not everyone has the privilege to make decisions about money versus work-life balance and other personal values.


CEO Daily Brief is a daily, five-minute podcast for CEOs where we dissect the week's biggest news, unpack hot-button workplace trends, and bring you exclusive interviews with leaders who leverage culture to drive real business results.

John Frehse, Global Head of Labor Strategies at Ankura, joins Jessica every week to discuss the latest news in labor, employment, and workplace culture by asking each other the question: 'What Are You Paying Attention To Now?'
