would it be possible to stay in IB to as far as retirement?

proscheung

Hello,

I'm heading into my undergrad soon and I'm hoping to land a job in IB at one of the Big 5 banks in Calgary as energy is what interests me the most. Anyways, as is the norm up here in the North, I 'm not going to pursue exit opps and instead stay as a banker.
What I'm wondering is how good are the prospects of banking being a long term career. If you work hard and aren't bad at what you do, would it be possible to stay in IB to as far as retirement?
TLR: is being an energy/O&G banker in Calgary a potential long term job that you could stay on til retirement?

Please help.

I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.
