Everyone on this forum is a vagine and banking really isn’t even that bad
As non-coders, we are compensated more than any other college graduate in the career universe. Sure, we have to deal with egotistical seniors and turn petty comments until 2am - but living on a $200k graduate salary in the best city(s) in the world & having to give up a couple extra hours of sleep a night is an absolute privilege
I tend to agree - as someone who got into banking later / older, let me assure you that the corporate world is full of egotistical seniors and stupid admin work. You work less but also get paid a LOT less and there are no three-year promotion cycles. You just hope the person above you gets fired or moves on. People often act like they were forced to choose banking with a gun to their heads or that no one told them banking had bad hours before they started.
I generally agree with the take that banking is a sweet gig. But, I will say that sleep deprivation, depression, Stress, anxiety are all very real and can effect people differently and even drive some of the most talented people over the edge. I don't think its really fair to call people out for real problems one might be facing.
I’m a big believer in the notion that you have to put things into perspective. If banking is really ruining your mental health - then quit. You signed up for this. And this is literally in the top 0.01% of jobs for pay, experience, and responsibility
