However, isn't quality of life as a junior hire in both finance and consulting much worse than in tech? Every Goldman or McKinsey hire I know was worked like a dog for their first ten years, while at a FAANG you can generally work 9-5 and still have a pretty successful career.

Obviously there are other components as well (how much you travel, being on call...), but that already captures a lot of what's commonly missing in salary discussions.
