To those of you who stayed in banking, why and are you happy with your decision?
Everyone has their own story and I’d love to hear what’s motivated you to stay on the sell-side (beyond the incredible hours, of course).

Stayed in banking, had an easier time making my way up the corporate ladder. The higher I go the more sensitive information I handle, but I have less responsibilities. This means that I can clock out early most days, leave work early sometimes, I have more free time to: go out to eat, go to the gym all during time I should be working because I get done with my responsibilities quickly a lot of times
.Now, that doesn't mean I don’t work long hours some days and that my job is not stressful.I also make a whole lot more money than any of my counterparts who went to the sell side, and in terms of where on the ladder I am compared to them, for the same amount of years we've been working I'm around 3 "ranks" or "positions" above them
Any chance you’d be willing to share the sector / type of role you’re in and what day to day looks like? Would be much appreciated
