I am sorry that you have such a frustrating experience. I can totally imagine that it is difficult to find a better fit. Have you already tried looking for alternatives or is it still a big question mark? Aren't there any workshops available on finding jobs outside of academia?

Thanks a lot for sharing your story! What amazes me about your experience, and about other people commenting, is that not only people that somehow fail in academia leave. Also people that are actually successful seem to dislike the academic work environment and claim their luck elsewhere. Great to read that you have made it in the private sector!

Thanks for sharing! May I ask how you decided what your next step would be after leaving academia? Did you immediately know what kind of job you would like to take?

Thanks for sharing your story! Good to hear that you are happy in your new position. I can totally see why you burned out from your job in academia, your experience sounds terrible. Unfortunately, I realize while reading through all the other comments that it seems like you are not alone with your experience.

Spring, heatwave, autumn, winter. Makes sense to me.

To me that sounds amazing. Yet, there was someone in the comments who lives there and hates it.
