This isn't much different than associate lawyers at big firms
Nah.
At least not anymore. They work long hours, sure but a big law associate will bill like 2200-2300 hours a year. Add in some non-billable time and you're at like 50-60 hour weeks, not even close to 80+.

Depends on the practice and the deal flow.
I was doing some work a few years back working with K&E guys who were regularly sending me e-mails at 2, 3, 4 AM almost every night, for probably 3 - 4 months. I did not envy them.

The IB guys referenced in the OP are very small number of people. Sure, that's not applicable to most associate attorneys.
But at the absolute upper echelon, they are close to the IB guys. Maybe not all the way, but they are the closest, along with perhaps medical residents in some specialized fields like surgery or neuro.
