[QUOTE="anonymous, post: 6014713"]Ive been out for 10 yrs. My career has taken off in another direction. Less perks, but I continue to grow and stretch, earned another degree and certification on the way, moved up in management with respect and expectations of be being a grown up. I was pushed out at 41 and took a year for me to land something new. I wrote a book during that year and practiced self-care. The mental toll the last 2-3 yrs was great. Overall the other 10-15 were amazing--but the shift in the early 2Ks horrible. Would I go back? No. I lost a friend that aggressively tried tot recruit me. She just did not respect my stance that I was not willing to step down to a rep position, now I was in healthcare management with a strong trajectory. She was working contract and has since changed contracts. Later for that life. Was it hard? Pharma made it easy by giving me the boot. I didn't have the courage to leave the golden hand cuffs.
