Ex-Big 4 audit in Ireland (ACA qualified) went to a smaller practice for a year, can’t survive another busy season now :( What kind of relevant jobs can I apply for with no overtime and don’t involve crying on the way to work?

Lots of people said go to industry, but I don’t know which industry and what kind of position I should look at

Hi! I started at a new company 2 months ago and while I’m really enjoying my job so far, I’m having a hard time gauging whether or not I’m doing a “good job.” My role seems to be always evolving, which is fine and I actually enjoy being a support to the greater marketing team, but I feel like I need better defined targets to make sure I’m meeting expectations. Also, when I ask my boss what they’d like to see, I don’t ever get a clear answer. (Cont’d in comments)

My coworker did mention to the manager that they’re not being paid well for the work they do, and our manager took it personally and told them they’re ungrateful 🥲
