I think these rankings are appropriate for those right out of college. However, for someone 10+ years out of college, the rankings change as the lifestyle component becomes more important for most. E.g. private wealth management can be great - making mid 6 figures ($300k+) at a decently sized place, while working like 5 hours a day. And people get sick of $750k / year banking jobs that are a grind.

[@meme_chef]

true, same with Endowments/Foundations industry. a senior analyst (3 yrs post banking) i know at a large private foundation makes ~300k a year. the directors make $1.5 mil and the CIO makes around $3 mil. all work less than or equal to 40 hrs a week.

I work within a family’s company as a real state analyst. Hours vary and pay is of course amazing. I’ve noticed that when we have lots of different deals at once I get completely swamped nearly depriving myself of food sometimes bc I get lost in trying to finish things quickly. But there are times where maybe I’m only working on 1 deal and then the time is alot slower and more manageable. I have friends that work on wall street and alot of the reason why these big firms have crazy hours really is due to the amount of business they attract. The more deals they get awarded the more manpower it’s going to take to execute on those deals

[@andrescast]

I’m surprised you didn’t include work/life balance. Compensation/hours worked/stress level should put positions like commercial banking and wealth management a lot higher and high finance IB much lower. Divide an IB analyst pay by their 80 hr workweek, and they probably closer to $25-30 an hour.

[@chadbernal9682]

yes, of course, but those are different priorities. As people say, you go into corporate finance (IR, FP&A, treasury, etc.) to get your hours back, not lose them. Commercial banking and wealth management also provide a much better WLB than VC, HF, PE, IB, etc. For pure total compensation and not hourly rate, the traditional wall street gigs do better.

[@dar7279]

80 is being nice you are probably going to work 100 hours

[@alexquelch5990]

@@dar7279 I havent worked in IB before but im curious. IB is notorious for this 100h workweek but how is this even possible? if you were to work 12h a day 6 days a week thats only 72h so youd need to be working 17h a day to get to 100h. The only way I can see this as being physically possible is if we are counting time spent in the office, not necessarily time actually working. Also is it more so that some weeks you will be doing 100h and others may be less like 70-80? It would have to vary. I think people very much overestimate these things. But I have no experience, let me know

[@monkey220ms]

As someone who doesn’t have a math PHD, I’d take PE over HF because your fund can implode at any moment which you have almost no control over. Also it’s hyper competitive with overall terrible job security. Also your bonus might be $1m one year and $0 the next.

i think another good metric to use here would be long term viability. yes, hedge funds are often very reputable, lucrative, and difficult to land an offer at, but they can also have really high turnover, especially during recessions. private equity is another that could be hard for a person to stay in past the vp level as partners would have to give up more carry for every promotion.

FPA and Treasury are very different... One is financial reporting and kind of falls under accounting due to the focus on a financial statement (P&L) and reviewing postings. They're mainly review drivers/impacts to revenue, net income, etc. while Treasury mainly deals with cash management and liquidity (risk). I've done both. Very very different. You don't need any understanding of accounting in the latter. And you'll always find FP&A in companies, it's just that you might not find it as often for entry level grads because experience is often expected by peers in other departments (you'd be directly exposed to business strategies compared to other groups and the fact you're exposed to execs/directors).

It’s funny but in an entry level position in an american investment bank such as Goldman Sachs, S&T has a way better compensation than investment banking. Also, big bosses in S&T are paid way higher than in m&a in these industry (except for Lazard and Rothshild). And S&T is one of the best career to move in hedge funds afterwards. And in terms of work/life balance, in S&T you finish earlier and you have your weekend. But finally all these rankings are based on nothing, because it depends a lot on the company’culture. If the CEO is from investment banking, this field would pay off more, same if he’s from S&T

Ditto for pivate equity which are just AUM collectors and struglle to return 10% returns after fees.

As someone who’s in the app process for my MBA I found this very helpful. Thank you!

As always, you did a fantastic job explaining the top 10 jobs in the Finance career. I just had a question; I am going to high school and interested in learning about finance; I was just wondering if there are any things/prerequisites that I have to do/take to better my chances of getting into a reputable university that offers business-related undergrad courses. Thanks!

Enjoy high school while doing your best, whether or not you get into a university or not won’t determine your future. High school is a great time to learn and have fun. Enjoy it

@@MatiasRijoM Thank you so much for the advice, I appreciate it!

It would be good to get involved in business related EC’s. Many schools don’t offer business electives and colleges won’t penalize you for not taking a course that doesn’t exist. If your school have finance/accounting electives, make sure to take it! For me, I started an investment club teaching students financial literacy and also founded a business. Hope that helps:)

Are you 11 or American and like 15 or something

​@@tigerxiao8412 Hey there, I hope this finds you well! I appreciate you taking the time to give me beneficial advice regarding Business electives and your experience. It's great that you were able to start your own business from your accumulated experiences! Professional individuals like yourself told me that universities want an all-rounder, so I am thinking of taking 2 or 3 essential matters and trying my best at them. For instance, I am considering starting a business club in High school. Then, depending on how it proceeds, I can use my freshman year knowledge and experience to begin on an Informative YT channel or write a blog about how doing research helped me find better ways to proceed with my career. Of course, this is a hypothetical idea, but I hope it works out! I am not sure if you will read this but thank you for your help; it's greatly appreciated!

Great viedo! I am finishing college (21 year old), and have been working for 3 months in a big four comany, performing due diligence on M&A processes. I recently got an offer to work in equity research. Taking into account that my goal is to work in investment banking, would you recommend me to take it or to stay at my current job?
