Evil bank- good job or bad job?

Using a throwaway because my friends/colleagues might guess my identity based on post history of actual account. I recently joined an investment bank in a trading desk. I am paid well but the fact that I am helping the rich become richer is bothering me. Add to that I am surrounded by finance bros which is…annoying again. I have never said anything about my leftist beliefs (obviously) but I cringe when they say the usual things you'd expect finance bros to say about leftists and even specifically this sub. Question is: What should I do? Would you continue working at such a place if you were paid well?
