I'm currently a digital marketer for a Fortune 200 company - and while the money is really good, I can't stand the workload, and I'm desperate to get out. I don't mind taking a pay cut if my work-life balance and amount of vacation time improves. I was in a really good gig for that before this, but things changed, and in a panic, I got this job without a clear understanding of how badly it would affect my life.

So my question is, how do I scout jobs for a decent workload and benefits without coming across like someone who wants to do the minimal amount of work possible?

Sounds like you shouldn't be there at all. Finding a new job especially within a dynamic environment could take months. Are you suited for that?

Also could you specify you question a bit.

Well how many hours do you work and how much are you paid right now?

I'm aware it could take a long time... Unfortunately I'm kind of tied to my city, too. I don't know how to specify further than saying I want to learn how hectic a job is going to be, what the state of their department is, etc. There's a big void of talent in the area in what I do, so I have the perception that businesses will say just about anything to get me in the door, like this job did.

About 60 a week, and that's just in-office time. A lot of times I have to take my computer home, and I still get get looked at like I'm not doing enough. My boss and her counterpart typically work 10-11 hours a day.

I make $75,000 a year.

One last question - what level are you? First year, second, etc?

If you don't mind me asking, what does a digital marketer actually do?
