Hi,

I am a qualitative primary researcher with 3 years of experience on agency side. Given thr hectic work culture of agencies, I've already reached burnout and am seeking a change in my career path.

Can anyone recommend a career path that can offer some level of work life balance?

Is UI/UX research a good path to explore?

Yes - study UX research online. Speak to some mentors online via LinkedIn they can help you work on your skills (identifying mentors is easy, they put UXR mentors in their profiles). Jumping from MR to UXR is easy and doable.

That is helpful, thank you.

Besides UI/UX, I was also wondering to explore SAAS based B2B sales or some other role?

I have a Btech Computer Science background, but did my MBA right after that so don't really have any exp in IT. Do you think it will be possible and worth it?

Hello ladies, do any of you feel like you don't fit in to the 'guys guy' culture at work? How do you deal with it?

I work at a company where there are 30+ men in the office and only three women. Recently there was a golf outing and the managers invited everyone except for me and the other two women. This is an overt example, but there have been a few other small instances of weirdness. Do I try harder to put myself out there or do I just stay in my lane at work?

Any tips are helpful!

So I was seeing this guy before the pandemic who I really liked. We went on a couple of dates but bc of my toxic work culture I began treating him like shit. He wasn’t the most communicative either, but I felt like I jumped the gun too fast and said somethings out of impulse. Looking back, we could’ve handled that much much better. It was a really intense time in my life but now that things have settled down, I find myself thinking about him a lot. Should I reach out or should I just let it go?
