Tech may be the hottest girl in the room right now, but that's quite analogous to finance 10-20 years ago. The environment is more aggressive now than before and fewer placeswhere you can coast on two hours, but the saving grace is that engineers are in general just nicer folks than bankers.
Don't think I earn much more than bankers a few years out of school, but work is likely more stimulating.

Do you have the skillsets? Are you willing to network and beg for a chance to learn on the job? If not, forget about it. The transition is not easy at all.
I know friends who have done it. They fall into two categories - (1) either they had the finance skills to begin with (e.g. double degree, or did their own learning), or (2) they begged for a chance to prove themselves and nearly died learning on the job.
