The issue is not that software development in finance in sucks, this particular job is likely not a good fit for you.

Now, as you said, this is your first full time job. My first full time job after college was also in development, for a military subcontractor of all places. And I hated every second of it. We had floating hours, which we could use to build up overtime to take additional days off. After about 9 months, when I finally quit, I had accrued negative 90 hours (over two weeks of work I had missed)!

Sometimes it is not a good fit. It can be the environment, your colleagues, the actual job, or even the industry. In stead of droning on here, maybe you can start looking for what would make you happy professionally?
