Quant Roles!

Always wondered what does the work comprise exactly? Does one do maths all day or little coding with maths? Are the high paying jobs really that stressful? If we are looking to switch from SDE to quant roles, what to focus on? TIA.

P.S. From the OAs of some high-end quant roles it seems that they really get into the nitry gritty of a language like C++ and focus on lots of maths, and not much DSA. Do correct me if am wrong.

Depends on the company. The goal is to use math to extract alpha. So as a quant you can be anywhere in the strategy devising life cycle. From ideation to back testing.

SDE's paid higher ?

I compared many SDE vs data scientist/ engineer CTC which were public.

I can see data roles are paid less .

Is it true? Many consider data roles as less coding(tech) roles. Why?
