Yeah.

I'd say working for a big bank or law firm is much more stable (less risky in terms of job security/steady career trajectory), although less stable than other sectors.

On the other hand, it's also arguable that it's harder to go big if you're working at a bank or law firm (more risky in that you're less likely to be able to retire young, and not just because of your extravagant fatcat mcbankster lifestyle).
