Would put comp higher for hedge funds and sales & trading but of course varies widely

Higher than growth equity?

You could add asset allocator (especially endowments) with lowest hours and solid pay.

Otherwise, I’d think about the scaling a bit and specific roles (a PM at a multi manager fund makes a ton relative to a sr analyst at a hedge fund). Also not sure that hours are that different between hedge funds and PE.

For Sales and Trading hours are true for buy side, sell side including dinners,travel, etc can push 60/70+ hrs I could imagine.

What is work-life balance like in big tech legal? I’m currently in house at a large multinational; I like my job and I get paid fine, with a very good WLB (40-45 hrs). I want to look into FAANG-type opportunities as they would mean a huge pay bump, and I think I’m qualified, but I have no idea about the hours, and I don’t want to substantially give up WLB, as that’s why I left BigLaw. I don’t want to be miserable again. I know Amazon is poorly reputed for lawyer WLB… what about other places?

Is it okay to disappear from friends & family to work on career change goals (several months)? I want to focus and not get distracted by friends & family needs to see me or attend certain things as it takes up a lot of time.

Had an epiphany recently.

Why do I work so much?

It’s because I have little family and few, if any, friends. Had a rough childhood. My way of making an impression on others has always been through work.

By working, I do something I’m good at and makes people appreciate me, while covering for my loneliness and feeling of inferiority. It’s sort of the only thing holding me afloat.

When I’m probably never going to have friends or a family of my own, becoming partner is the next best thing.
