I’m very tempted to take a year break or so. After all, baby’s milestones once missed I can never turn back. However, I’m worried that I may not be able to get a job when I’m ready to return. I have a friend who quit to look after her kid. Been a few years, she only managed to get part time job or covering for people going on maternity.
Yes pls switch. You can try healthcare line? I was in engineering before & it was too stressful for me. Now im in healthcare line, i feel that my boss and colleagues are more understanding towards my situation. :) but it all depends on ur boss and the people he hire i guess.. my place has no politics & i love it. :) all the best in your job hunting!
Government sector should better. Though I would suggest to talk to HR and see if there can be a proper arrangement worked out? Or maybe can consider no-pay leave? That way you can get a clean break from work, less pressure that way, albeit no pay.
You may wanna consider jobs that give you time flexibility! I may be able to intro you and let you know mroe if you’re keen :)
Not mlm I supposed?
It’s alright to do a career switch. Some industries can be forgiving.
Government sector perhaps? They have programmes supporting PMETs too
You can consider taking a short break of 1 year
I actually quit my job so feel better
