Whichever doesn't require you to work over the weekend
IB = People will ask you what stocks to buy
Tech = People will think you can fix their computer
In all seriousness, choose what you’re good at and have a natural interest for.
Painfully accurate.
You're on a finance forum and asking this. I think the results would have some bias...? Try a Reddit forum.
To be young and naive..
Absolutely no one gives a single damn about things like "tech vs finance prestige" the second you graduate and work in either of these roles. Quit wasting time thinking about such things, go get some poon or go read a book
SWE is probably more prestigious to this Gen considering the bad rep Wall Street has.
First of all, I advise you not to view life this way as no one does post-college. Second, it's apples and oranges - what is even the comparison between two entirely different roles / industries?
Pretty much the same quality for a job but tech isn't really "prestigious" so to speak. When you think of prestige you think of something very conservative old moneyish
