You're an analyst and travel 100%?! I'm a soon-to-be analyst and would not want to travel that much.
What office and what operating group are you in? |

I wouldn't worry about that too much. If you're in a big city and do not want to travel, you don't have to. I've seen people hae put family or other issues above their job and refused to travel. While it can hurt your career some, it is a choice some people do make. That being said, if you're not in a Global Service line and in a city that has some busines, you don't have to worry about it. The company would prefer to keep you in town for two reasons. First, on an aggregate level, employee satisfaction is higher with less travel. Secondly, it cost the company and clients a lot of money for travel expenses. As a new analyst, because you likely do not have much expertise, it's tough to justify this cost.
