I bought this book primarily because of its supposedly "candid" view of I banking. What I found it to be was a book written by two ungrateful whiners. Despite the fact that they are travelling by private jet, staying in world class hotels, and earning over 200K a year, they manage to whine that they are over worked and just "cogs" in the machine. Give me a break, im sure that by the time they graduated Bschool they knew what investment banking entailed. I banking is not an emotionally rewarding profession, and most corporate positions are not. I dont know what these guys were expecting.
