Advice sought: I want to quit my devops job, but scared of outlook
Will be intentionally vague...
I'm only devops person (doing security, infra, cicd, alerts, sre) in small startup.
Equity is near zilch (nothing life-changing)... Will quit before 1 year period before it vests (been several months, no change in culture)
I have enough saved for 6 months, financially, to quit
Being the only has worn me out. No energy to interview either.
Question: if I quit, how much harder is it to get a similar job coming back (senior+ devops, devops manager) 4-6 months later. I need to quit to take care of myself, but afraid I'll be doing my career a disservice: I'm sure my employer will be dissatisfied (but probably expected otherwise they'd give more equity I presume before I joined if they knew what the role was)
