Consulting = long hours, higher salary ceiling, potentially challenging work and decent exit opportunities
Banking tech = regular hours, lower salary ceiling, menial work and terrible exit opportunities
If go banking you either get out early or you stay for life. If you want to exit at lets say AVP level, your salary is too high for the work you do, so you might have trouble jumping ship without significant paycut.
