I just quit my investment banking gig after 5-6 years for a variety of reasons. Partly personal (e.g., mental and physical health, wanting more time and flexibility, etc.) and professional (want to make a transition into something different). I was an analyst for 3 years and an associate for 2.5 years. Could have been a VP but thought it wasn't worth it and wanted to pursue things outside of investment banking.
Does anyone have any similar experiences? What do people do now? Buyside would be interesting but honestly I would personally rather take a more relaxed job and work less and have more flexibility (Corp Dev?).
I think I need a plan, but I also want to take a mental break from work. Any advice would be appreciated.
