in terms of hours, banking and restructuring are definitely the worst.

I don't think that's quite the case. If it were, no humans would be trading at large financial companies and prestigious prop shops. Everything would be done by a computer.

aside from automation, a major issue with trading is that Basel and other regulations have forced banks to reduce leverage and increase their tier 1 capital as a proportion of their balance sheets. this means they can assume less trading risk.

algos have taken over equities and futures. fixed income will take some time, but once they start clearing through exchanges as a result of dodd-frank, i expect automation to take over that as well.

because it's not as selective as banking or pe, with little exit opps and transferable skills.
