Cya? Leaving finance to data science / programming

Am working in HF. Want better work/life balance. Want better hourly pay, as current hours are insane and in the end hourly pay is low. Finance industry is changing, might as well learn programming. Should I switch to tech? Any of you wonderful people want to switch too?
