For me, both career tracts are interesting and have its pros and cons. Doing sales long term is tiresome, while in-house IT role might be boring after a while. Any advice from the folks here, especially those who have been in the same boat?
Since there are no push factors, I would advise against moving into unfamiliar territory. The grass is always greener. If you find sales tiresome, why are you so sure that other roles won't be as tiresome?
