my opinionand所以如果看看他们的salary range就知道，engineer是远远高于investment banker的， r u sure? quote statistics to prove ur point, otherwise pls dont wilfully make up fictionary facts that mislead ppl. i dont think it is true from what i know, banks pay better salary throughout the world. i know an American guy from Princeton EE. he told me for his batch only 3 of them went on to grad school, the rest of them all went to work.
