Suppose you have top notch data science and machine learning chops and also suppose quant shops are willing to hire you regardless of your financial domain expertise.
In such a scenario, is the 99th percentile of quant compensation significantly higher than the 99th percentile of tech company compensation (FANG etc)?
I've always considered this a fork in the road for many---finance versus say advertising--and I'm curious how others with more experience would describe the pros and cons of each.
