I don’t know about you guys, but I don’t want to think about work when I’m done for the day. I don’t want to be pinged on slack. I don’t want to check my emails. I want to shut down my computer, turn off my phone, and spend time with my family.
I know our industry is fast paced and very competitive, but sometimes I wish it was “just a job” and it didn’t have to be so intense and high strung all the time. I’m all about producing good quality work when I’m working, but I don’t want my career to be my entire life and a point of high stress all the time if it doesn’t have to be.
Am I dreaming or are there some good companies out there that respect personal time, pay well and aren’t super stressful?

We are accountable for making sure that our designers are meeting the bar for their role and level, and clearing blockers for them.
Reach out to your manager if you feel like you’re not getting accurate feedback on your work or there are unreasonable expectations. That is on YOU to let your manager know.
But if you really want to chill, look at health insurance companies, particularly ones with extremely high average tenures. You'll see 25-hour work weeks there if you join the right teams.
For health insurance companies, United and Anthem are both good for wlb. I don't know Kaiser as well, but I have acquaintances who love working for them. Insurance, in general, is pretty chill unless you're in customer support.
