I moved out of finance into non profit but still doing tech. Every day I try to find "purpose" in my work but a tech job is a tech job. The income is the only reason I can't jump ship out of BS and into something that I find meaningful.
Sometimes donating to the causes you care about does more good than working in the industry itself. A friend of mine who is really into dancing came to that conclusion.
