What about the company known as Finance? Or Medicine?

My peers in finance are expected to be at their desks in the city twelve hours a day wearing a suit, and they earn a basic salary for it.

My peers in medicine work 24-hour shifts and earn a quarter of what they do in Silicon Valley and the only catering they get is a dirty microwave.

People in Silicon Valley are driven to work, work eight hours, get three catered meals, and take home more money.
