Was at my last job almost 2 years and I’ve been at my current role 6 months and it’s given me more anxiety and self doubt than I have ever experienced. I know it’s not a good fit...

No job is worth your sanity. Start looking ASAP. If you find something, just omit the 6 month’er from your resume / LinkedIn entirely, or list it as freelance. Good luck OP

I quit a job after two weeks. Got another job a week later. It's all good. Those two weeks now seem like nothing more than a bad dream.

That is nuts and good for you!

That sucks to feel like you are being talked down to! No one should make anyone feel that way. Don’t beat yourself up for not seeing any red flags. Maybe the interviewers were just good in covering up what they didn’t want you to see.
If you think that things can change if you talk to your managers about how you’re feeling, then you can try that. If you know in your heart that the job and place is absolutely not right for you, then start looking! Good luck to you!

And I need to get out but I also know job hopping doesn’t look great. Anyone had an experience like this- can’t decide if I should jump ship or power through.

Thanks all- appreciate the thoughtful responses!

Get out ASAP-you know what else doesn’t look good? Anxiety and self-doubt personified, it’s not worth it

Does anyone regret joining a boutique consulting firm? I signed with a startup out of college (spring 2020) whose founding partners were all partners/Sr leaders at a few T2s. Our firm is super small (dozen FTEs) but does really good work (we charge premium rates and work super cool projects). I’m just having second thoughts as exit opportunities aren’t as prevalent as I thought, the pay/benefits don’t match industry/risk of joint a startup, and I’m not getting the network of a Big4 or MBB
