Currently a senior that completed a SA and received a RO at EB known to be intense. Unfortunately, after thinking it through, just don't think the long hours and exit ops (PE) are worth it.
Are there any careers out there that are more chill but offer comparable (can be lower) salary? For reference, I'm a CS major but atp I don't think my technical skills are par for SWE. Also open to other roles in finance that are less "on call".
