My IB Exit to Corporate is still sweaty af and stressfull, Crazy to want to "exit" again?
I was in IB for 3 years at an EB in NYC and was burnt out and hated the work. I took a corporate gig as my "exit" but now I want to "exit" my "exit" if that makes sense, but feel weird doing so. I have been in my corporate seat for 2 years now.
I am a strategic finance Manager 1 who made $315k their first year and then $335k their 2nd year. As title suggests, hours were consistently 9am to 9pm, with weekend work. Stress has been somehow worse than IB.
Is it crazy for me to want to "exit" again to a legit normal 9-5pm? Maybe something in FP&A or operations? I just am reluctant as I know the compensation is very strong for this position, and a true 9-5pm post banking exit would pay what, like $140-$170k all in?
DM me. Similar issue
Yeah. That is the tradeoff now isn't it?
Maybe figure out what you’re trying to solve for and what you want out of life. I always tell people if you don’t nerd out over the intricacies of your job you probably aren’t into it. ( Nothing wrong with that, but it makes it hard to tolerate when things aren’t going well)
