We talked with Bay Area workers about why they decided to quit their jobs in the past two years.
Cindy Ngo knows her story isn’t unique. A nurse since 2014, her experience working through the COVID-19 pandemic completely depleted her, she said, and she was burnt out. So in April 2021, she quit.
Meanwhile, she felt isolated from friends and family, many of whom were able to work from home and protect themselves from the virus. She quit her job as a nurse in April and decided to create her own business, where she sources her own home products and amplifies the stories of female creatives in the field. “I think a lot of people are resigning because they realize they don’t want to go back into an office,” Ngo said. “...I feel like I have more control over my days.”
