CF vs. Corporate Banking / Asset Management

To each other, how would these jobs compare in term of:

  1. Specific jobs as junior/analysts
  2. Pays, bonuses, and progressions. Is hierarchy as rigid as one in IB?
  3. Hours. I think CF would be around 40hours/week, but how about CB or AM? Do these careers enable you to live a life? (60hours)
  4. Competition to get in from a semi-target.
  5. Accounting or Finance major?

Honestly not really looking for exit opps but steady and great progression career-wise. Would also love a mix of quantitative and communication skills.
