Vacation and Balance

Vacation benefits

Money isn’t the only form of compensation. Considering that financial markets are on the go twenty four hours a day, a firm needs to be conscious of the burn out factor and its effects on productivity. Hedge fund management seems to be aware and offer a solid vacation policy. 28% have three weeks of time off and 50% get four weeks or more. Of course, how the vacation is distributed and how many vacation days are actually used is a different matter.

Work and personal life balance is a subjective measure and depends much on the individual. In examining the professional versus personal balance in the hedge fund industry, 41% of respondents feel that they are doing an above average job and about 20% feel they are striking a below average balance.
