Yup, don't waste time in marketing. The pay is usually pathetic and the job thoroughly unglamorous. Good luck getting matches on dating apps if your job title reads Marketing Exec...

I second this. I think the policy role has a better outlook. Look at this 10-20 years down the road, rather than the individual starting pay.

If nothing else the pay is better. Good luck slogging for 3k pay at your marketing job and trying to dig a way out of the rut you'll be stuck in.
