Exit opps with better WLB

What are things people do with better WLB after IB? Something on Wall Street or finance related but not as intense. I know everyone talks about the standard exit pops like PE/HF, corp dev or tech. What are other things you’ve seen people do that are somewhat relevant to the street but have better lifestyles than banking?
