It's a volatile, frat house that for some reason until this day cannot price small business risk correctly. Start ups are a risk in itself but fintech is suffering significantly. It was a solid play in 2014/2015 now it's all about not going to zero and saving yourself from defaults. Fintech is also so goddamn boring. I will say it depends which firm you want to go to but 9/10 are doing poorly and you'll end up underpaid and fired in a year
