背景资料:1. 还是前几年的经济爆发阴影,很多大学生毕业后想去华尔街,伦敦金融城,金融交易所 ,银行等单位工作,因为这些单位都是美差,肥得 流油,那里简直是遍地都是奶和蜜。2. 2007年开始的金融危机首先就以投资银行的倒塌为开端,随后金融机构相继遭殃,很多银行机构借机大肆裁人,因此失业率很高,急于就业的大学毕业生压力更大,为了得到好职位,的确拼命工作,所以才出现下面的 情况。现在全世界新闻都在热吵。 美林投资银行伦敦分支的一名21岁实习生在浴室中死亡,死因还在调查中。 这名来自德国,美国密歇根大学的本科学生莫里兹(Moritz Erhardt)日前在伦敦公寓的浴室里被发现死亡。他的朋友透露,莫里兹是在上司的压力下两周之内有8次通宵工作,最长一次连续三天。这一事件引起媒体的广泛报道和有关银行的工作文化问题的评论。 莫里兹是金融专业的学生,即将在明年毕业。他是德国基督教民主联盟所属的青年组织Junge Union的地区主席,还是地区网球冠军,除了德语还精通英语和法语,曾在KPMG、摩根斯坦利和德意志银行等五家公司实习。 美林投行国际交流部主管约翰·麦卡尔(John McIvor) 说,“所有的流言都是一样,但我们会等待最后的验尸结果再做回应”。他说,“我们所有人都很震惊并且对此事感到悲痛,他是一位受大家喜爱的人,也是公司重点培养的实习生。” “我们的第一反应就是给他的家人在这困难时刻送去关心和问候”,他说。 莫里兹的死因还在调查中。初步调查显示他患有癫痫。 一位在伦敦金融城投行工作多年的中国女士对记者说,她每天下午6点就让她带领的实习生回家,“多年前我实习的时候也常常熬通宵,但我每天还出去喝酒,然后再回来上班也没事”,她说。 一位刚刚开始在伦敦金融城里的花旗银行Citibank实习的马来西亚籍女生告诉记者,她每天晚上7点左右回家,早上9点上班,因为太累回家就睡觉。“但是我的同事担心我实习结束后是否能得到正式工作”,她说。 一位同期在美林投行实习的同事说,“莫里兹是公司的‘超级明星’,我们通常每天工作15个小时以上,而你会发现他一直在工作,没有人比他更勤奋。他是一个很亲切的人,大家都很喜欢他。” 一位资深人力资源顾问克里斯·罗依巴克(Chris Roebuck)表示,超时工作成为年青银行从业者中越来越严重的问题,“或许和个人雄心有关,也可能是目前就业环境的压力,人们都急切地希望得到工作机会。” 一家金融实习机构FinanceInterns的发言人说,“这种超时现象只在个别金融机构常见,但即使是这样目前的就业竞争之大也是从所未有的”,他说,“因为你一旦成为实习生,就希望这能发展为一份全职工作,这个动力使得你去做公司希望你做的一切。” 连续三天工作21小时 伦敦金融城实习生猝死 http://news.xinhuanet.com/world/2013-08/21/c_125209930.htm http://www.chinanews.com/gj/2013/08-21/5186906.shtml http://gb.cri.cn/42071/2013/08/21/6611s4225026.htm 英国一银行实习生连续三天熬夜后猝死 http://world.people.com.cn/n/2013/0821/c1002-22636209.html http://tv.people.com.cn/n/2013/0821/c25060-22649116.html http://finance.sina.com.cn/stock/usstock/c/20130820/220216508667.shtml Bank of America intern death sparks debate over hours http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-23779779 Bank of America intern's death puts banks' working culture in spotlight http://www.theguardian.com/money/2013/aug/21/bank-intern-death-working-hours Intern, 21, dies during investment bank summer scheme http://uk.finance.yahoo.com/news/intern-21-dies-during-investment-102515827.html
