What are some roles within finance/banking that offer strong comp out of undergrad without extremely long hours? Personally, I am fine with 50-60 hours, but not fully willing to reach 80 like in IB. What are some good roles that offer this sense of WLB while still providing good comp in the 6 figure range?

S&T—hours closer to mkt hours
pretty niche but securitized products
I disagree - was in one of the top CLO teams - constant 1 AM logoff
Interesting, have an assoc friend in RMBC at JPM that rarely works above 60hrs a week. Depends on the product team I guess

corp banking. You'll never get laid of cause of deal flow and you can start in at least 6 figs, grow to more even if its not banking type growth. Shit if you work at BB long enough they might give you some cushy dumbass exec position on top of it.
Have heard about corporate banking as a pretty good opportunity. What does comp typically look like for BB analysts/associates? I know base is 6 figures, but what does total comp look like after bonuses?
my total comp for CB at JPM/BoA/C:
An1: $150k
An2: $180k
