Summer associate at a v10 in the corporate group and I’m so dissatisfied and unhappy with what I’m doing and what the trajectory looks like ahead. I’m realizing public interest work that fulfills me is my calling (also based on externships and clinics I’ve done in LS so far), but i know the burnout from those is real too.

I'm not in sales per se but I manage my company's largest wholesale account ($150 million per/yr account). It's a great company, awesome culture, good benefits, flexibility, but the pay is not great ($60K/yr).
