I have been thinking a lot about my future, and can use some perspective. I'm a tax accountant, and this last tax season has been just awful. The hardest I've ever worked, yet the least I've ever accomplished, and a manager that treated me like dirt. The whole situation is very demoralizing. Currently, the idea of going to work gives me terrible anxiety and fills me with dread. Another manager has promised me that changes are being made and next year will be different, but they have also made it clear that the shitty manager isn't going anywhere and it doesn't seem like her behavior is being addressed. Some of my coworkers are similarly contemplating quitting, which will also make my situation worse if they leave.

In many ways this is the best company I've ever worked for. I've never had any issues taking time off when needed, didn't fire me when i needed a 2 month sabbatical, and they listen to input about policy/ procedure.

I'm tired of being overworked and treated like dirt just to live paycheck to paycheck with no benefits, but sadly this could also be a good as it gets.

So, do I suck it up or look for a new job? Is it time to abandon accounting and look for greener pastures?
