I agree with OP. Not a partner yet but have seen a lot of them saying the same thing. Money aside work and life doesn't get better. You have more stress and pressure than before. Might get fancier stuff but will never have time and energy to enjoy those.

My bosses boss a plagiarized an article of mine and I’m not sure what I should do. What would you do. An exec two levels above me took one of my published articles removed my name and posted it to a different site with the only changes being removing my name and adding theirs.

Do I report this to the ethics hotline? Have someone else report it or just drop it. This particular individual may have accidentally told a truth once so this isn’t likely new behavior from them.
