Moving from engineer in financial industry to engineer in "regular" industry (same city) I just accepted and told potential employers I expected a pay cut. Sooo much money in finance, everyone is "over" paid.

I'm in finance and looking to get out. Why did you move?

Nothing to do with industry. I was in a more or less dead end devops role. I wanted more of a pure programming role.
