Engineers in finance: robust bonds at the office, hectic lives.

TLDR: Engineers in the finance industry have healthy romantic relationships, but their work lives can be stressful and demanding, according to a recent survey. Despite challenging working conditions, 96% of the 1,000+ respondents to the survey reported being in steady relationships. Many engineers credited their strong relationships to understanding partners who support their hectic work schedules. However, some engineers admitted that the demands of their jobs have strained their family lives and personal interests. For example, one New York-based quantitative VP mentioned that he spends too little time with his family and sleeps only five hours a day due to his excessive workload. Ultimately, finding a partner who is willing to support the demanding lifestyle of a finance engineer is key to maintaining a healthy relationship.
