Feel like quitting job now…

Feel like quitting job and stop working in tech altogether

Will complete almost 5 years in tech industry thankfully have worked with couple of great companies But lately losing out on the will to work Everyday I’m literally dragging myself from bed to work and my only motivation is money that’s it I feel like Coding is not for me anymore, and due to my high work experience and CTC moving to roles such as PM or Founders Office etc is also difficult

I feel like I should just quit take a career break for a few months, try my hand on some good PM bootcamps, Dropshipping business and content creation

If it doesn’t workout I will go for an MBA

But coding - I don’t think so I can’t keep doing it any further now

Anyone who has been in similar boat or pivoted post a break would like to hear your thoughts

Honestly, I think software engineering in India just breaks you. We are treated like dogs; have to upskill ourselves in things that require a high amount of brain power, yet we aren't allowed to drive decisions to the required extent; the relationships with manager matter more than the work we put in; the perennially looming threat of layoffs and deadlines adds more harassment; etc.

PM boot camps and courses are sham and scam. I waster money on it and many are doing.

Drop shipping also another scam.

Content creation is a long game, keep it in parallel.

Save money. Try doing things in parallel and then quit.

MBA, anyone can do. Even from too tier 1s but what's the outcome you are looking from it. Talk to people.

MBA is slowly getting hammered left right center due to technology evolution and shifts.

Plan well all the best.
