Even inside of tech, I think one can safely say that there are certain areas that do the same. Game development for instance.

Game development is hell if you're not at the top.

Dealing with Hollywood is a pain if you're not dazzled by the industry. Either they're in development and their credit cards bounce, or they're in production and they want a new feature yesterday.

In certain companies, unpaid (or poorly paid) interns are in a similar situation.
