You seem to post a lot about the worry of your job and comp. Recessions suck. But right now Tech is going first. Tesla, Spotify, Affirm all doing lay offs or hiring freezes. 

Banking won't lay many off this time around, but they will not be hiring or slow their hiring. 

Consulting will probably be your better bet during a downturn, but the WLB is gone, trust me I worked 74 days straight through Xmas and NYE at one point. Reason I left to go to RE.
