#5It doesn't cover one important aspect though i.e. learning; I think one stops or is forced to stop real learning. Also stress levels is quite high at wall streets compared to valley.

#6Interesting views. Just to add:
Early on in your career, you get "transferable" skills in both the industries. So, shifting from one industry to another cannot be very costly. So, one can always decide for one self.
But shifting also requires a change in mindset. Wall Street is a lot of money/bonus talk. Silicon valley would not like people who think only about money every day. Silicon valley is less shit work. Wall Street would not want people who do not smell the coffee well. So, the attitude should definitely be checked.
My 2 cents.
