I recently started a new role, but quickly realised it doesn’t feel like the job will work for me long term.
The role itself is very messy and stressful, but also the commute is far worse than anticipated - research before suggested 45 minutes, but reality is over 1.5hours due to traffic.
Speaking to my manager about my concerns and it was a mixed message on work flexibility and doesn’t seem like the adjustments they can make will improve things, but the idea of leaving scares me too much!

Hi fishes!

I've been working as a freelancer for the last 1yr as a UI/UX designer. Now I'm thinking of switching back to a full time job in the same field. Usually companies ask what's your current and expected CTC. In this situation, what would be the best response? Shall I give them my last invoice that I got paid or tell them it's variable?
Also, what should be the expected CTC with 4 YOE in Product design or UI/UX role?

Any suggestions and thoughts are highly appreciated!
