Alternative career thoughts

Feeling exhausted at my startup(3YOE/32L CTC). Anyone else feeling the same way?

I can't seem to relate to much of the hustle junta out there. I mean I have a cushy job with decent equity(pretty much like all of us do). But these startup roles have been taking a mental toll on me. Like I am getting paid but I feel a little purpose-less. What am I gunning for in this life?

If I could leave tech tomorrow and do a normal non-corporate job for the exact same pay I would run a small cafe in Koramangala. Now that I am in the startup scene I have nothing to look forward to.

Any of you all feeling this way? Because I don't see myself chasing another funding round and feeling much happy about that either.

Haha I don't work at Meesho. But honestly, most late-stage startups still have that same exhausting hustle culture.
