seriously considering to quit from working at the biggest social media platform that now incorporate e-commerce (social commerce)

Hi redditors, i am not disclosing anything due to the contract, this post is not about perks or disadvantages but more on mental health and burn out. As you can see from the title, the job is really demanding and the pay is skewing slightly to above average ( senior position), but the company itself is slowly retracting their subsidy( no longer burning money lol) and sometimes under-delivering to the promised support for sellers, hence putting client-facing staffs in a pickle. this inconsistency and constant grind really takes a toll on my psyche, i am really overworked and overwhelmed. My cortisol level is at an all time high due to my stress level (daily campaign, monthly campaign, you know the drill of the ecommerce sphere), there is no rest, even on public holidays i still work ( as every metric is recorded live by the system, so when the numbers…

My cortisol level is at an all time high due to my stress level (daily campaign, monthly campaign, you know the drill of the ecommerce sphere), there is no rest, even on public holidays i still work ( as every metric is recorded live by the system, so when the numbers are low i get a nudge from the traffic team).

I am considering to quit after the annual bonus but i am really unsure about the exit, as currently my energy is so low and i am mentally drained to seek for an exit strategy, i honestly dont want to be in this industry anymore and i also dont know what is the next progression if i change industry šŸ™ everyday after turning off my computer i vegetate like a zombie staring blankly just to decompress, so many things going on that needs to be done, i have worked at multiple start ups before but this is just next level chaos, have i mentioned that the atrition rate is on repeat for every 3-6months? every day i wake up dreading the grind and turning on the computer seems so heavy.
