A Gen Zer who was laid off explains how she's happier and more creative after working corporate jobs that 'sucked the soul' out of her

"If the pandemic has taught us anything it's that the essential workers — the workers we need so the public can survive — probably don't exist in a corporate building and they're probably not marketing coordinators," Ma said in her TikTok video."Plus the fact the something like a pandemic can dramatically shift everyone's life, so I'm not going to spend a single minute in a career path that I don't wanna even be in.

"There's pressure mostly for college graduates and people in their early 20s to work a corporate job, and that pressure is created mostly by people from previous generations who see corporate jobs as stable/successful," Ma told Insider. While she said her work-life balance was better before,"it didn't feel like I was really working or living."

Her previous roles meant not a lot of time to do other things outside of work during the week. She said by the end of the week she was tired and added that she"basically lived my life for the weekends" where she was then able to"really do what I wanted."While Ma could see returning to corporate roles as a backup plan, she said"ideally" she would like to not have to go back.
