I have been in a role where expectations kept shifting, pressure kept rising, and the environment slowly became exhausting. Even with limited flexibility and added costs, the demands continued to increase without much support. At the same time, family responsibilities and bills make it difficult to simply walk away. Has anyone chosen to leave a situation like this despite the uncertainty?

The majority of people hate their jobs right now but are stuck because of the current job-pocalypse. If you don't have enough saved to cover your expenses for at least 6 months you better stay where you are.

Career advice?

I'm a relatively junior data engineer (2yoe), the only other engineer (senior) that trained me left about a 6 months ago and I negotiated a nice raise for the extra responsibilities.

My performance reviews have been stellar, but my manager is starting to look to hire a senior to help me deliver projects as we do lack capacity right now.

I feel like I might be missing an opportunity to ask for a promotion and hire a junior instead.
