I am doing MBA. I am interested in operations and Supply Chain Management. But I find that most of my school mates are vying for jobs in Investment Banks or Financial companies. I am not sure which is better.

Ask yourself - do you like working with problems that you can solve or do you like working with people and selling?
Operations/SCM - working with problems that you can solve
IB/financial (at the low level) - working with people, specifically by selling (and possibly making gigantic $$$ if you like the lifestyle and become an adviser or broker)

Investment bankers have the potential to make big money that's why your friends are doing that. Supply Chain managment will teach you how to run a business which could be a potentially more valuable skill.
You have to decide whether you want a 50 percent chance of getting rich in 5 years or a 90 percent chance of running a successful business within 10 years.

Supply chain management. I did it for years and was able to travel to different countries in the process where I also lived. It's a huge field and beats the uncertainty of the financial world.

Supply Chain, is frankly, more rewarding as a career. If you want the OPTION for extreme wealth but the prospect of burn out, do banking.
Supply Chain is more stable and you will enjoy it more. Plus, there is a better chance of HIGH PAY whereas in banking, you have to be VERY LUCKY and climb very high before you hit big bucks.
