Or maybe banking/consulting glory isn’t all that glorious as people make it out to be?



Well, from what I’ve heard from some of those who have worked in banking/consulting, the peception of super high rewards seem to be buoyed by the rumor where actually only a few have become a really successful investment portfolio manager and become really rich. As Sakky said, Goldman Sachs, Citigroup, JP Morgan have rigorous hiring session even at tech schools like MIT and Caltech, but frankly speaking, I never heard 300-500K as a realistic average rewards as part of the appeal of their showcase.

But the point that I did want to make is that 25 years accomplishment would likely to rely on the capability of the person rather than on his job. Someone may start becoming an engineer with a pay of 100K and end up as the CEO of GE with a $$$ pay at a later time like Jack Welch.
