Hey guys just wanted to make this obligatory post saying that SWE is a better career path than IB. I only saw two threads about it this entire week (!). Can a few people in investment banking please reply about how I’m wrong because IB has a higher income ceiling and risk adjusted earnings? Thx.

Actually I think you'll find that IB has a higher $$$ ceiling and a higher risk-adjusted comp
but not hourly adjusted!
Tech is definitely better. But it’s intellectually more difficult — you can’t grind your way to 7figures like you can in IB.
If I had to code all day, I’d blow my head off. Don’t care how great tech is, it’s not for everyone.
