I have hit a threshold.
I’m 7 years in, don’t want to transition to a leadership position, and I’m burnt out from recruiting itself.

I’d thinking of moving to HR Analytics or Program Management.

I’m staying put for now considering the ongoing layoffs. Hoping to look at internal mobility next year.

I’ve recently left my job (unhappy with it) and am applying for new work. I have a few irons in the fire at the moment.
