Many have faced similar sentiments in their professional journeys. If you're interested in transitioning into a role or field that aligns better with your initial career aspirations, begin doing it as a side-hustle.

I'd guess most of us have felt disappointment with our jobs at some point. I certainly have. If the job is never going to be something you find fulfilling and won't directly lead to anything fulfilling, then stay on the look out for something better.

The lowest hanging fruit when it comes to success is just showing up. Be present when stuff is going on. That's where opportunities pop up. Also, people notice who's around and who isn't. The best ability is availability, as they say.

I can totally relate, graduated from uni a few years ago and got my first job as an innovation manager for a multinational bank. Sounds great on a resume and salary+benefits are good, but these are literally the only things keeping me in my bullshit job. After years of frustration, I came to the conclusion that developing a meaningful career walks on a path made of trade-offs and mistakes that we can learn from. My current strategy is: endure at least 1 more year to get to a higher salary scale and use it as leverage while getting another job. In the meantime, stack as much as possible. Stack not only money that can help you fulfill your dreams (I would like to buy a small apartment and start a couple of small companies in the short term), but also experiences and business connections, it will all pay off in the near future. This has been my journey so far, I hope you soon find yours. And don’t hesitate to ask for advice, this is a great community that will always have your back if you don’t mind a couple of roasts every now and then ;)

Stick it out, get experience, make the job what you want it to be as much as you can. If there’s more you want to learn and can’t at work, learn it at home, then look for a more interesting job when you’re ready. Also, working in traditional finance as a software engineer is very boring IMO. You tend to be forced into old tech, long drawn out business processes, and generally have a lot of “rules” to follow.

Yes

It might be good to suck it up for a couple of years. That's a good salary IMO & you should be able to stack plenty of sats.

Once you have more experience you can look for a more interesting job. Or better yet, once you stack enough sats you can build something yourself!

Work hard. Nothing worth achieving is just given to you. Find your passion and be positive and optimistic!

Get a second job. Work two jobs for a while. Quit your least favorite one. Repeat.

Either find your dream job or create it.

This requires risk and self actualization.

Overcoming the challenges necessary to do good is the only way to find fulfillment.
