I need advice. I have been in customer service for 10 years, most of which being in a supervisor role. I am actively looking to leave my career because of ongoing unresolved issues with leaders that hold influence. It has gotten to a point that it has impacted my well being.

I don’t want to lead people any longer and I don’t want to take a pay cut.

Id prefer an individual contributor role and min salary of 65K.

Anybody make a switch like this ? What fields or roles should I search for?

Hello,

Thank you for sharing your experience. Ten years in customer service, with most of that in a supervisory role, is a lot of valuable experience, especially in managing operations, processes, and client interactions. It’s completely understandable to want a change when leadership dynamics are impacting your well-being, and wanting an individual contributor role while maintaining a fair salary is reasonable.

When I faced a difficult career transition myself, I also struggled to figure out the right path. At that time, I connected with an expert who helped me identify opportunities that matched my skills and guided me on how to pivot without taking a major step back. With that guidance, I eventually secured my role as a flight attendant.

If you’d like similar guidance on making a successful career switch while staying aligned with your goals, you can reach out to their team at alfredpetersonhiringteam/gmail/com.

Wishing you clarity and success as you explore your next steps.

My old employer asked me if I wanted to come back to the company as a manager. The pay will likely be much better and the position holds more responsibility than I’ve had before, so overall it would be a step up. The issue is I left the company because of an abusive manager who constantly put me down and made me feel like I wasn’t doing anything right. If I come back I’d be working under her again. I’m torn because the opportunity is great but the stress was awful. Continued in comments…

Just looking for some tips and advice, any help is appreciated 🙂.
