Marketing. I spent 6 years to start my career and it was by far the least stressful. People in marketing manufacture stress to make it seem more important, but it’s easy relative to everything else. Also incredibly boring.

I think more creative roles in design and copywriting are a bit easier to navigate than technical roles in tech

In addition to role, consider company culture and maturity stage too. A possibly less stressful role at a company known for bad culture could be worse than what you have today. Same for the same role at a smaller company where they don't have things figured out yet.

Thank you that’s fair! There is a lot of work to get all the systems and analytics in place. So just feeling overwhelmed. Hoping to hire more folks next year to spread the work.

Ridiculous question: How do you learn what other jobs actually do, both conceptually and tactically? Should I just type names of jobs like product manager, etc., that I’ve heard of into google/YouTube/LinkedIn and see what comes up? I’m 23 and all my friends from school are either in consulting, finance, or medicine and I have no idea what other jobs are even out there / what they do - I just know that *consulting is a good job coming out of school* and *m&a integrations makes me sad*
