They are skeptical of Wall Street institutions' promises to do more to protect them from burnout.

BI asked students to score importance of five factors they might want in their first job on a scale of 1 to 4 , with 1 being "not important" and 4 "very important" Students rated compensation and exit opportunities as the two most important factors.

When asked about their dream finance jobs, many of them spoke of investing or becoming their own boss.
